Murder on the last frontier
(Book)

"There's many who feel the Alaska Territory is no place for a woman on her own. But Charlotte Brody, suffragette and journalist, has never let public opinion dictate her life choices. She's come to the frontier town of Cordova, where her brother Michael practices medicine, for the same reason many come to Alaska to start over." Cordova is gradually getting civilized, but the town is still rougher than Charlotte imagined. And when a local prostitute one of the working girls her brother has been treating is found brutally murdered, Charlotte learns firsthand how rough the frontier can be.
