Mystery Books Set in Alaska

Alaska is such a beautiful place! With the crystalline water, snowy mountains, and adorable wildlife; it’s the perfect backdrop for a mystery book to be set in. These mystery books set in Alaska have characters that must race against the clock and the elements to solve the case before it’s too late. 

Alaska Mysteries

I included thrillers in Alaska and cozy mystery books based there for this reading list! Because these stories are based on cold weather, I recommend reading these stories during Winter or Christmastime for a super cozy feel.  

You’ll also find yourself at the edge of your seat as the detectives in these mysteries must battle the snow and ice to avoid any pieces of evidence being wiped away.

Enjoy!

I’ve been reading Mousse and Murder by Elizabeth Logan and have been loving it so far! It’s a fun mix of mystery, intrigue, snow, and delicious food. Afterward, I plan to pick up Sunrise by Susan May Warren and Polar Opposites by Amity Allen.
