Arctic Blue Death by R.J. Harlick

23. – 536.) Arctic Blue Death by R.J. Harlick – When I bought the book I thought it was the first Meg Harris Mystery. It is actually the fourth. Meg Harris is summoned home to Rosedale by her imperial mother because of mysterious letters and Inuit prints saying her first husband, Sutton, is alive. He had disappeared over 30 years ago in a plane flying over Baffin Island, now part of Nunavut, Back in Toronto her research into the potential Inuit artist leads to a retired art dealer who turns up dead just before Meg’s second meeting with him. The solution is in the north and Meg flies to Iqaluit. The book is brimming with information on the history and process of creating Inuit prints and sculpture. The book moves at a good pace. The Arctic comes across as a far more interesting than just a cold place. The solution verged on the incredible but Harlick brought it back to reality. Having not read a mystery set in the Arctic I have now read three in the past year. Well done. Paperback. (May 31/10)
