This English edition preserves the author's original text. As our publishing house specializes in French-language publications, this edition has not undergone the same editorial process as the French adaptation, which was professionally edited by a native French editor. Readers will therefore discover "Hunted in Alaska" in its original English form, as first published by the author.
Publisher's Note: "Huntedin Alaska" is a compelling noir novel. Its prose is lean, its narrative stark and unsentimental, echoing Alaska's harsh climate. With methodical precision, the author dissects horrific acts, complex characters, and an unforgiving wilderness. The writing feels as though it has been stripped of all sentiment, filtered through a lens devoid of empathy. In this respect, the author recalls the style of Georges Simenon's early novels. It is a boldartistic choice - and a remarkably successful one.
