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
thriller 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 former sheriff
Cork O'Connor to find his daughter, and 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.
