    Northernmost

    06/11/2026 | 35 mins.
    “There are no roads that connect Utqiagvik with any other community. Nobody can get on the freeway and head for Fairbanks. That’s 500 miles of open tundra. So the killer was still in town.” Today, a murder case in the northernmost community in the United States.

    Rebecca Wright Stevens’ book is Sisters of the Midnight Sun: A Murder in Arctic Alaska.
