Set in Alaska.
Having been there several times and eager to return and spend much much more time there, I'm enjoying these Sue Henry books set there.
Good mysteries and good info on more of Alaska locales, traditions.
I'll be reading the series.
Read in 2004. ( )

The kidnapping of a young woman running in her first Yukon Quest triggers a sequence of events, including murder and attempted murder, which complicate the already challenging sled dog race. Jessie Arnold, the lead character with her dog Tank, overcomes the difficult course and weather, rescuing others along the way. She survives being abandoned in the snow to die and finds the kidnapped young woman. Tank, well trained and intelligent and totally awesome, comes to their rescue. ( )
