SITKA ALASKA 1962Everybody had a story about Miss Ruth. All knew something. None knew everything. As far as the inhabitants of the Alexander Archipelago were aware, she had lived all of her ninety-some years in these islands. Still, there was no record of her in any of the state agencies: no birth certificate or driver's license, no employment records, no listing in the census. As far as the state of Alaska was concerned, Miss Ruth did not exist. She was a mystery, and Sam Mitchell, Junior editor of the Sitka Sentinel, did not like mysteries.He was determined to uncover the truth about Miss Ruth. After all, he was a son of Alaska and a Mitchell. He could do this.
