I started Kreuger with Ordinary Grace, a truly beautiful story, painful and truthful, well told and well crafted.
Since then I dived into the Cork O'Connor series. The first book, Iron Lake, was excellent but I found myself
comparing it to Ordinary Grace, which diminished my appreciation. With each subsequent book, I find
more admiration for Kreuger's brutal story-telling ability, especially his soulful blending of Native America wisdom,
white man exploitation, and basic human frailty, humility, compassion and courage. Nor to mention
the power of a loving family! Now I feel each book growing within me and within Kreuger, much
like I feel when I read Louise Penny books, which make me feel part of a family, culture, and loving community/.

Boundary Waters Cork O'Connor Mystery Series William Kent Krueger 9780671016999 Books Reviews

An exciting story about a C&W singer who goes in hiding, to think about her place in the world. Shiloh (there is no connection with her name and the famous Church where the bloody Civil War Battle took place) is the daughter of Aurora, Minnesota favorite daughter Marais Grand, who was also a legendary County/Western singer, who's murder was never solved. Shiloh was there when her mother was murdered, a child, unable to identify the murderer. After seeking to clear her mind through psychotherapy, and come in touch with her past, she contact he cousin Wendell Two Knifes to learn about her Anishinaabe (Chippewa) Indian heritage. Wendell take's her to a remote cabin deep in the Boundary Waters on Northern Minnesota. where Shiloh could find solitude and peace, and think where her life was going. There is a fear that her mother's killer would be hunting for her because Shiloh may know be able to identify him. There are also several men who claim to be her father, looking for her

All Krueger's book have a heavy dose of Anishinaabe spiritualism, mysticism, and metaphors. Also a major character who is a young adolescent. This is the second book of the Cork O'Conner series. It stand alone from the first book, and has many characters from the first book and new one's that are in future books. It a gripping and exciting book.
I read this one in 2 days. I have always been fond of female authors (favorites are Tami Hoag, J.T. Ellison and Carla Neggers) but I read Iron Lake the first in the Cork O'Conner series and then this one. I ordered the next 4 because I could wait to read the next. I think the author has done a great job with describing Minnesota. The Anishinaabe history is an excellent addition as well that the author has great knowledge of. I imagined the reservation he referred to was either Fond du Lac or Bois Forte in the first book and this one. I thought this to be a suspenseful easy read that I could not put down. I saw some reviews that thought it was incorrect in descriptions of where things are, but if you live in Minnesota and are familiar with rural parts of Northern Minnesota as well as how the reservation boundaries are then you know the author is correct in his descriptions. I look forward to finishing the series.
This is the second book in a long series that I can already tell is going to be a reader love affair for me. Reading it was one of those "stop presses" moments for me, the kind that you get when you know you're on the verge of discovering a new-to-you writer that is going to sweep you away to all the places readers love most. It's not just the characters, it's the setting in and around the boundary waters between Minnesota and Canada, the Indian reservation backdrop, the complex theme of modern versus traditional beliefs, man versus nature (which can be trite, but is NEVER trite here), and the backstory for a main character and his family that blew up in book one and is slowly starting to come together in book two. This book is a steady march into suspense that absolutely took my breath away. This is masterful writing and storytelling at its finest and I'd recommend it to anyone wanting an amazingly good read. The series is best read in order but as a standalone the suspense in this one cannot be beat. Astoundingly good.
The setting is Tamarack County located north of St. Paul and due east of Fargo. The cast of characters gets pretty big when FBI agents, Native Americans and other characters join a wilderness search party. They are looking for a young woman who goes by the single name of Shiloh, a country western star who also owns her own record company. To top off the crowded scene, three men arrive and each one claims to be Shiloh’s father.
Former county Sheriff “Cork” O’Connor joins the group of searchers and they embark on an exciting and sometimes deadly expedition into the U.S./Canada border region where many lakes, rivers, streams, islands and forests abound. To make matters worse, the first winter snow is about to cover the landscape.
This novel bears a resemblance to Craing Johnson’s books about Wyoming Sheriff Walt Longmire. In both cases, you have a sheriff tracking down a criminal or trying to save someone in the wildnerness, Native Americans providing assistance, and severe weather hindering the successful accomplishment of the mission. Cork is separated from his wife, Jo, an attorney who provides pro bono legal assistance to local Native Americans. Longmire is a widower and his daughter Cady is an attorney who does similar work for no fee.
Nevertheless, William Kreuger has his own engaging style and tells an interesting, complicated, and satisfying story while springing several surprises along the way.
I started Kreuger with Ordinary Grace, a truly beautiful story, painful and truthful, well told and well crafted.
Since then I dived into the Cork O'Connor series. The first book, Iron Lake, was excellent but I found myself
comparing it to Ordinary Grace, which diminished my appreciation. With each subsequent book, I find
more admiration for Kreuger's brutal story-telling ability, especially his soulful blending of Native America wisdom,
white man exploitation, and basic human frailty, humility, compassion and courage. Nor to mention
the power of a loving family! Now I feel each book growing within me and within Kreuger, much
like I feel when I read Louise Penny books, which make me feel part of a family, culture, and loving community/.
