In this "smart and satisfying" ("Booklist") Anthony Award-winning
novel from William Kent Krueger's stunning Cork O'Connor series,
the charismatic detective faces his most dangerous case to date.
Back in the saddle as sheriff of Tamarack County, Cork O'Connor
is lured to the nearby Ojibwe reservation on what appears to be a
routine call -- only to become the target of sniper fire. Soon
after, he's called to investigate a mutilated body found perched
above the raging waters of Mercy Falls. The victim is Eddie Jacoby,
a Chicago businessman negotiating an unpopular contract between his
management firm and the local Indian casino.
Sparks fly when the wealthy Jacoby family hires a beautiful
private investigator to consult on the case. But once Cork
discovers an old and passionate tie between one of the Jacoby sons
and his own wife, Jo, he begins to suspect that dark, personal
motives lurk behind recent events. Murder, greed, sex, and jealousy
hide around every corner in this maze of danger. But somewhere
beneath the turbulent Mercy Falls lies the truth -- and Cork is
determined to find it.
