About this listen

Anthony Award-winning author William Kent Krueger crafts this riveting tale about a small Minnesota town’s ex-sheriff who is having trouble retiring his badge. Cork O’Connor loses his job after being blamed for a tragedy on the local Anishinaabe Indian reservation. But he must set aside his personal demons when a young boy goes missing on the same day a judge commits suicide—and no one but O’Connor suspects foul play.

What the critics say

"Krueger makes Cork a real person beneath his genre garments, mostly by showing him dealing with the needs of his two very different teenage daughters. And the author's deft eye for the details of everyday life brings the town and its peculiar problems to vivid life." ( Publishers Weekly)

FABULOUS

Althought I have heard Krueger's books before, I had forgotten what an incredible writer William Kenf Krueger was! Every sentence is perfect, description is first rate, characters are well drawn. the narrator is wonderful. Excellent first book to this series and I'm looking forward to hearing the rest of them. Look for all of Krueger's books, you will not be disappointed.

Excellent story and narration. Enjoyed the native culture profiled in the book. Could have done with fewer deaths.

Love this Author

I was already hooked on William Kent Kreuger after reading "This Tender Land" & "Ordinary Grace". I decided to give his Cork O'Connor series a try and started of course with Book 1. Just downloading Book 2. Narrator is great, which also adds to the story. I really enjoy this author's style of storytelling and character development. I would highly recommend!
