another home run by William Kent Krueger

I just love the story telling and the native American references. this book like the others I've listened to William Kent Krueger his written just captivate me.

Deeply Moving

I started the Cork O'Connor Mystery series with a curiosity about mysteries set in the North Woods and and continued because the writer explores the complexity of humanity in all characters. His understanding of how big issues play out in small towns is especially insightful, and think Kent Krueger ranks with the best of them--Tony Hillerman, CJ Box, and John Sandford.

This isn't the first in the series

I am confused why the author acts as though Cork hasn't been doing extraordinary acts for the last however many books. He has always acted as a "sherif" go getter. Why is it weird that he wants to do it now? Or almost like he hasn't risked his life 500 times before? Weird. But I am glad these womyn kick ass this book. Although I don't understand why the author needs to repeatedly remind us that Rose is large...
Good over all but I am getting bored with the series.

The Lake Claims It's Own.

Another exciting story in the Cort O'Connor series. Well thought out characters with just a touch of mysticism. Highly Recommended. You won't be disappointed.

3rd book keeps up

Enjoyed the historical story line woven in. Suspenseful story that kept me guessing. I'm enjoying this series so far.
