Justice vs. Mercy
The first in the Alaskan Quest series, the theme of this book explores forgiveness, and the seeming paradox of justice and mercy. A female bounty hunter comes to Alaska in search of a man who has harmed her family. She says she is only seeking justice, but later realizes it as revenge to cover up her own guilt. She also doesn't understand the place of mercy and forgiveness until she begins to see she doesn't know all the facts in the case, and that she also needs mercy and forgiveness.
