Dana Stabenow, A Taint in the Blood

The latest in the Kate Shugak series - Kate is hired by a woman who wants Kate to prove her mother is innocent of murder. The catch: the mother has been in prison for 30 years, having been convicted of the crime. Kate goes to Anchorage to investigate the case. Although Kate isn't sure she's getting anywhere, someone is noticing her progress and clearly doesn't want the case re-examined. Another good entry in this series, and for those keeping track of Kate's lovelife, we see an awful lot of Jim Chopin in this one.
