Catch Me if Yukon is the twelfth installment in the Passport to Peril series featuring tour director Emily Miceli. Accompanied by her husband Etienne, Emily has brought her misfit band of Iowan seniors to Alaska and joining them are members of the Windsor City "Norwegian Only" book club.
Things begin to spiral out of control right from day one. While it's normally Emily's usual crowd that causes trouble this time it's the book club members. One of the gentleman has taken a shine to the beautiful local guide they've hired much to the chagrin of his wife, another gentleman is treating his wife like a pack mule forced to lug his camera equipment far and wide and another's wife has gone missing back home and is presumed kidnapped.
Their first evening in Alaska ends when one of the group is found bludgeoned on a hiking trail and all fingers point to Bigfoot as the culprit. It seems that Emily's father has inadvertently captured the elusive creature on his camera. True to their nature the seniors have all posted videos and pictures to their social media accounts and the media swarms in.
Things continue to go downhill literally when a ziplining accident leads to the death of another member. Emily has her hands full trying to keep everyone under control but making matters worse are the constant phone calls from her ex husband, Jack. Readers of the series know that Jack is now Jackie, and Emily has hired her to lead a separate group of seniors on a trip back home in Iowa. Jackie's tour is also filled with mishaps and the majority of her passengers have landed in the hospital.
An easy quick read filled with the quirky characters that have joined Emily from the start of the series. Humorous hijinks will have you laughing out loud from page one until the finish.
