Andy Hall – Denali’s Howl
David is joined by former editor and publisher of Alaska magazine Andy Hall to talk about his new book Denali’s Howl. This book tells the true story of the 1967 Wilcox expedition which took place on Mount McKinley, an expedition where 12 men set out to summit Denali and only 5 returned. While there have been many books written on this disaster, none have been written from the perspective of Andy who was living at the park at the time and his father was the Park Ranger dealing with this tragedy.

David is joined by Atlanta-based novelist Karin Slaughter to chat about her latest work Cop Town. Unlike a majority of her previous works, this book is a stand-alone novel replacing recurring character Will Trent with female cop Kate Murphy. Aside from the suspense expected from Slaughter’s works, this book examines the issue of being a female cop in Atlanta in the early to mid-1970s.
