Books like Restless in the grave by Dana Stabenow
When Alaska aviation entrepreneur Finn Grant dies in a fiery crash, suspicion falls on everyone in southwestern Alaska—from his betrayed wife to his bullied children and even Lt. Campbell’s own wife, bush pilot Wyanet Chouinard. With the investigation stalling, trooper Liam Campbell turns to former mentor Jim Chopin, who brings Kate Shugak—an Aleut private investigator—into the case.
Undercover as a waitress at Bill’s Bar and Grill, Kate discovers that Grant’s rapidly expanding business, which acquired a closed Air Force base for a bargain, also moved into lucrative air freight. As she digs deeper, the mystery grows beyond a single murder into a sprawling conspiracy involving family secrets and treason. Restless in the Grave promises a tense detective story set against the remote Alaskan landscape.

But which of them actually sent the chocolates with their nasty hidden payload? Scotland Yard is baffled.
