About this listen

William Kent Krueger—“a master storyteller at the top of his game” (Kristin Hannah)—returns with a breathtaking new novel in his New York Times bestselling Cork O’Connor series.

After the teenage daughter of a prominent Minnesota politician goes missing, a huge manhunt is launched to find her. But when Cork O’Connor’s grandson Waaboo stumbles across the shallow grave of a young Ojibwe woman while hunting blueberries, nobody seems to care. Nobody, that is, except Cork and the newly formed Iron Lake Ojibwe Tribal Police Department. As Cork and the tribal officers dig into the circumstances of her murder, they discover a link to the missing girl that suggests these are not isolated incidents, but evidence of something much more sinister.

Already, tensions in the small town of Aurora, Minnesota, are high as residents gather to protest an oil pipeline that is being constructed through the pristine forests sacred to the Ojibwe at a place known as Spirit Crossing. In the meantime, little Waaboo, who has a unique connection with the dead woman, has become a target for the killers, and Cork’s daughter, Annie, has returned home with a secret that threatens to tear the family apart. The closer Cork gets to finding the answers he seeks, the more he fears for the people he loves.

The story was put together very well.

I had trouble putting it down. The story made me want to continue way past my bedtime.

The best yet!

I have loved this entire series ever since I was led to it via an external review for This Tender Land. After listening to that novel, i was so captivated by WKK's writing, his characters and settings that I had to have more. I highly recommend the Cork O'Connor series. When you make it through Book 20, see if you don't agree with me that it's the best in the series so far!

Cork and crew live

It seems like it has been a while, but Cork and crew return in full force. The author throws in a good mystery, there some good news, some bad news but it's still life in northern Minnesota.

The author has really integrated the Native American culture into this series. I haven't been there so have to take the author at his word. It seems as if the Native American culture of the area is trying to integrate into the mainstream of life there. It's not perfect and the author points out that there are many challenges. As with most things in life, it's a work in progress.

I'll look forward to the next Cork O'Connor story.

Outstanding as usual!

Love this family and as always, I learn about the “boundary waters” far from where I’ve lived. This book was sad in many ways but uplifting on many other ways. I love this family of characters and am happy to come home to catchup. Looking forward to #21.

Wonderful writing, wonderful characters.

i’ve read all the books in the Cork O’Connor series, and I hope that Mr. Krueger continues writing them… I look forward to hearing the continuing adventures of the O’Connor family and their entire circle, including the inimitable, everlasting Henry. It is such a pleasure, after reading so many books whose writing is mediocre at best and whose storylines are thin, to experience the solidity of a beautifully written, well crafted story. Hope you write many more!

Not quite what I was expecting

As always there is a good story with a mystery to be solved. Learning more about the plight of our First Nation people is sad as Krueger educates the reader with the story of how so many girls are affected. Will this book change what is happening to young girls? One would hope. No spoilers however I was very sad with the ending of the book.
