Synopsis: As tour escort Emily Miceli leads her globetrotting band of Iowa seniors into the wilds of Alaska, she discovers that, in the land of the midnight sun, whales aren’t the only killers on the prowl. When a tour member turns up dead on a mountainous hiking trail, Emily blames herself for the mishap—until she learns that something far hairier might be to blame.
One of the seniors snaps a photo of what looks to be Bigfoot, raising many questions about what happened to the victim. But the illusive sasquatch is just a legend, isn’t it? Between whale-watching in the glacial waters near Seward and ziplining in the primal forests of Denali, Emily finds herself locked in a game of cat and mouse with a killer who’s too clever to be mere myth.

I do want to say that I did not feel like I was missing out on anything with this one. Its one of those books that is totally within itself a fully fledged story so I feel confident saying that you do not need to read the other books to understand this one. I really loved the narrator Emily and the setting of Alaska! This one was full of laughing moments, lots of snark, and made this a mystery with a slight twist.
I did think that this one had a lot of characters to remember and that was a little confusing but other than that I did still like the story. The clues to the main mystery were great and I didn't guess the ending so that was wonderful.
