Cork O'Connor Mysteries, Book 19

By: William Kent Krueger

Narrated by: David Chandler

The latest in the New York Times bestselling Cork O'Connor Mystery Series from the "master storyteller" (Kristin Hannah, #1 New York Times bestselling author) follows Cork in a race against time to save his wife, a mysterious stranger, and an Ojibwe healer from bloodthirsty mercenaries.

The ancient Ojibwe healer Henry Meloux has had a vision of his death. As he walks the Northwoods in solitude, he tries to prepare himself peacefully for the end of his long life. But peace is destined to elude him as hunters fill the woods seeking a woman named Dolores Morriseau, a stranger who had come to the healer for shelter and the gift of his wisdom.

Meloux guides this stranger and his great niece, Cork O'Connor's wife, to safety deep into the Boundary Waters, his home for more than a century. On the last journey he may ever take into this beloved land, Meloux must do his best to outwit the deadly mercenaries who follow.

Meanwhile, in Aurora, Cork works feverishly to identify the hunters and the reason for their relentless pursuit, but he has little to go on. Desperate, Cork begins tracking the killers but his own skills as a hunter are severely tested by nightfall and a late season snowstorm. He knows only too well that with each passing hour time is running out. But his fiercest enemy in this deadly game of cat and mouse may well be his own deep self-doubt about his ability to save those he loves.

Mediocre story but…

David Chandler’s narration always makes a story enjoyable. He is my favorite narrator and I have enjoyed all of the Cork O’Connor books.

William Kent Krueger does not disappoint

I have read all of Krueger’s books and this one is among his best. I had assumed that after so many books the plot would be somewhat predictable, but I was wrong. Nothing about it is predictable and I loved the entire thing.

Kent Krueger does it again.

Compelling story. A deeper understanding of indigenous people, and a warning about one of our precious resources.
