Henry, Sue, Murder on the Iditarod Trail
The mystery and romantic elements are fairly predictable, but the information about the Alaskan Iditarod race is fascinating. For those of us who just think a driver/musher hops on the sled and travels for over a thousand miles, we are greatly mistaken. The amount of training, race-specific breeding of dogs, regulations for the race, checkpoints, required gear to be carried on the sleds, length of rest stops for drivers and dogs, is information that most of us have never heard. Reading this mystery is probably more interesting than simply reading something about the race itself. Actually, I couldn’t put it down.
