INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!
William Kent Krueger offers “one of his most puzzling mysteries to date” (Publishers Weekly) as a disappearance and a dead body put Cork O’Connor’s family in the crosshairs of a killer in the twentieth book in the New York Times bestselling series.
The disappearance of a local politician’s teenage daughter is major news in Minnesota. As a huge manhunt is launched to find her, Cork O’Connor’s grandson stumbles across the shallow grave of a young Ojibwe woman—but nobody seems that interested. Nobody, that is, except Cork and the newly formed Iron Lake Ojibwe Tribal Police.
As Cork and the tribal officers dig into the circumstances of this mysterious and grim discovery, they uncover a connection to the missing teenager. And soon, it’s clear that Cork’s grandson is in danger of being the killer’s next victim in this white-knuckled mystery from “a master storyteller at the top of his game” (Kristin Hannah, #1 New York Times bestselling author).
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
The search for two missing girls shines a light on the struggles of northern Minnesota’s Native American community in this instalment of William Kent Krueger’s long-running Cork O’Connor mystery series. When a white politician’s daughter goes missing, the story grabs major headlines. The local Ojibwe girl who’s also gone missing? Not so much—even when she is found dead. So it’s up to former sheriff Cork O’Connor and the newly founded Tribal Police to see if the two disappearances are connected. We loved the ensemble of characters who come together in this thrilling story, especially Cork’s family. (Your heart will pound when Cork’s young grandson Waboo—who has psychic visions—is in danger.) And Krueger doesn’t pull any punches when the investigation reveals issues like human trafficking, which disproportionately impacts Indigenous peoples. As this twist-filled case demonstrates, even a man like Cork—who’s been around the block a few times—still hasn’t seen it all.
