COLD STORAGE ALASKA
STRALEY, JOHN
Cold Storage, Alaska, is a remote fishing outpost where salmonberries sparkle in the morning frost and
where you just might catch a King Salmon if you’re zen enough to wait for it. Settled in 1935 by Norse
fishermen who liked to skinny dip in its natural hot springs, the town enjoyed prosperity in the mid-20th
Century, at the height of the frozen fish boom. But now the cold storage plant is all but abandoned and
the population is shrinking every day. Clive “The Milkman” McCahon returns to his tiny Alaska hometown
after a 7-year jail stint for dealing coke. He has a lot to make up to his younger brother, Miles, who has
dutifully been taking care of their ailing mother—and, really, all of Cold Storage—Miles is a Physician’s
Assistant and the closest thing to a doctor this side of Sitka. But Clive doesn’t realize the trouble he’s
bringing home. He’s reformed now, and his dream is to open a bar-slash-church (a Cold Storage
ordinance requires there to be as many churches in town as there are bars). Clive’s vengeful old business
partner is hot on his heels, a stick-in-the-mud State Trooper is dying to bust Clive for narcotics, and, to
complicate everything, Clive might be going insane—lately, he’s been hearing animals talking to him. Will
his arrival in Cold Storage be a breath of fresh air for the sleepy, depopulated town? Or will Clive’s arrival
turn the whole place upside-down?
