Authentic Arctic Crime books and Thrillers
I’ve got a few Ukaliina short stories coming out this month, so it makes sense to post the link to the freebie again, especially as it is now available in various places including Apple iBooks. I have to admit, it’s dead easy to download books to Jane’s iPad. 😉
Here’s the link to the Broken Arrow page on this website.
And the link to grab a free copy (not Amazon).

Yep, still not teaching. 😉 But I am trying to exorcise Top Gun from my head. Writing helps!
Ghost Flight is the second Ukaliina “Sled Dog” Nakinngi short story. It’s a bit different to the other Greenland stories.
It’s also possible, there might be more on the way. #toomuchfun
It’s okay, I’m almost done with the whole fanboy episode. But, if you’re not done, and you’d like to see how I celebrated the release of Top Gun: Maverick, then the following blurbs and links might be of interest.
If not, just hit the brakes, and let this post fly right by.
Yeah, couldn’t resist that one! 😉
I wrote two short stories inspired by Top Gun, but wholly different in a Greenlandic kind of way.
I’m always playing around with new characters and new ideas, so starting with some art, I created Lieutenant Ukaliina Nakinngi, call sign Sled Dog.
She’s a bit of a character, to say the least.
Here are the first two short stories. The first one is free.
A bet is a bet and for Lieutenant Ukaliina “Sled Dog” Nakinngi, even the worst odds are preferable to losing. But the creative and intuitive fighter pilot from Greenland has yet to lose a bet, and doesn’t intend to start anytime soon.
There’s a little more art and description on the page for Broken Arrow.
I had fun writing this one, feverishly writing before racing in to Sønderborg to see the movie, and then finishing it when I got home. I crawled into bed around 4 a.m. just as the birds decided it was time to get up.
Perfect!
Here’s the link to the download page for your free copy!
When terrorists threaten an adventure cruise ship with a missile from a hacked drone, the passengers’ only hope is a mothballed jump jet and a daredevil pilot with the call sign Sled Dog.
And once again, you’ll find a little more on the Call Sign “Sled Dog” page.
I got a bit worried when I read a review saying there were drones in the new Top Gun film, but fortunately there were none. At least, no more than a mention.
Here’s the Amazon link for Call Sign “Sled Dog” if you’re curious.
That’s it for now. I’ll leave you alone and move swiftly back to Greenland stories, or “other stuff” as I release it.
I hope you have fun with Ukaliina!

So, if everything goes to plan, and corona doesn’t get in the way… again… I am watching Top Gun: Maverick right now! We usually get a premiere a day early in Denmark.
Like it or loathe it, Top Gun continues to be one of my favourite and most watched movies. I was 13 when Top Gun came out and am still gutted that my mum saw it in the cinema and I had to wait to see it on a rented VHS half a year or so later.
Not this time!
Thirty-some years later I can see the sequel in the movie theatre! And I mean right now. This very minute. 🙂
Which, for me, anyway, is cause for a little literary celebration. So if you can cope with yet another short story from Greenland, you might find Call Sign “Sled Dog” interesting, if a little tongue-in-cheek, and more than a little Greenlandified. Yeah, it’s a word! 😉 If all the timing goes to plan, the eBook pre-order goes live while I’m watching the film.
Yeah, I know, I’m geeking out!
Just a little.
But if you can’t wait for the pre-order, or you’re curious but not entirely convinced, then why not have some fun with a free concept story? Check out Broken Arrow, introducing Lieutenant Ukaliina “Sled Dog” Nakinngi. 😉
Not sure if I’ve reached maximum fanboy capacity yet, but I think you’ll agree, it’s not for lack of trying! #toomuchfun
