Purgatory Ridge: Cork O'Connor Mystery

Not far from former sheriff Cork O'Connor's small hometown of Aurora, Minnesota, lies an ancient 200-acre expanse of great white pines, sacred to the Anishinaabe. And just a stone's throw from those trees -- too close for many members of the tribe -- is the lumber mill of wealthy industrialist Karl Lindstrom. When an explosion at the mill kills a night watchman, suspicion falls on the tribe. Cork is called in to help with the investigation, but he has mixed feelings. For one thing, he is part Anishinaabe. For another, his lawyer wife, Jo, represents the tribe . . .William Kent Krueger is the author of 'Purgatory Ridge: Cork O'Connor Mystery' with ISBN 9780786232130 and ISBN 0786232137.
