Former small-town sheriff Cork O'Connor leads a desperate search-and-rescue mission into the unforgiving Minnesota wilderness in this gritty, bloody adventure (Publishers Weekly) from critically acclaimed author William Kent Krueger's award-winning mystery series. The Quetico-Superior Wilderness: more than two million acres of forest, white-water rapids, and uncharted islands on the Canadian/American border. Somewhere in the heart of this unforgiving territory, a young woman named Shiloh-a country-western singer at the height of her fame-has disappeared. Her father arrives in Aurora, Minnesota, to hire Cork O'Connor to find his daughter. Cork joins a search party that includes an ex-con, two FBI agents, and a ten-year-old boy. Others are on Shiloh's trail as well-men hired not just to find her, but to kill her. As the expedition ventures deeper into the wilderness, strangers descend on Aurora, threatening to spill blood on the town's snowy streets. Meanwhile, out on the Boundary Waters, winter falls hard. Cork's team of searchers loses contact with civilization, and like the brutal winds of a Minnesota blizzard, death-violent and sudden-stalks them.

Boundary Waters

The evil men entrap, torture, and kill another native Indian. Wendell Two Knives forfeits his life in protecting Shiloh. So begins another saga in the trials of Cork O’Connor. William Kent Krueger develops a story rich in setting and characters. The time centers on mid fall with the threat of snow hanging in the air of Minnesota. Wendell has planted Shiloh deep in the wilderness of Boundary Waters in a primitive hut. He returns every week with supplies, but when he fails to visit, Shiloh decides she must attempt to reach civilization. Enter Cork and his band of Merry Men searching for Shiloh before the evil men find and kill Shiloh. The fear and tension of Cork and his crew and of Shiloh jump on every page. Who is determined to kill Shiloh and why? Which man is really the father of Shiloh? Will Cork and Jo reunite? So many questions! What will be the outcome of this long and treacherous hunt? A story that pushes the pages and does not end with the last sentence.
