"Among thoughtful readers, William Kent Krueger holds a very special place in the pantheon. Kent showed the mystery reading world that a protagonist need not be a chain-smoking loner with lots of emotional baggage but he could be an honest and admirable family man doing his best for all the right reasons." -- C.J. Box, #1 New York Times bestselling author, "A brilliant achievement, and one every crime reader and writer needs to celebrate." --Louise Penny, #1 New York Times bestselling author of All the Devils Are Here, "This sensitive, moving prequel introduces and draws readers into the series. Krueger has written another perceptive coming-of-age novel, the poignant story of a father and son trying to understand each other." -- Library Journal (starred review), "William Kent Krueger is a master storyteller at the top of his game with Lightning Strike . A pitch perfect, richly imagined story that is both an edge-of-your-seat thriller and an evocative, emotionally-charged coming of age tale that explores the complex bonds between fathers and sons and the long simmering animosities of the past. This is a beautifully written novel that packs a powerful punch. I loved it." --Kristin Hannah, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Four Winds, "Krueger's gift is to illustrate the dynamics of history and culture through up-close-and-personal stories." -- The New York Journal of Books, "There's a feel that you get from a master craftsman, a saddle that sits right, a fly rod that casts with its own agility, or a series of books written with a grace and precision so stunning that you'd swear the stories were your own." --Craig Johnson, author of the Walt Longmire series, "Poignant, powerful, and mesmerizing... Krueger skillfully blends big, suspenseful moments with quiet, keenly observed insights into human nature. This novel is rich with wisdom about right and wrong, choice and change, fathers and sons, and the ways in which loss can shape us as profoundly as love." -- Amazon Book Review, " Marvelous. I've long been a fan of William Kent Krueger's Cork O'Connor series, and this essential novel allows us to witness how young Cork developed and matured. Not just a story of fathers and sons, it's also a tale of Natives and settlers and how laws such as the Indian Relocation Act influenced both...A gripping, heartbreaking tale with beautiful writing, vividly drawn characters, and a story you won't be able to put down." --David Heska Wanbli Weiden, Edgar and Anthony Award-nominated author of Winter Counts

Synopsis
From the bestselling author of This Tender Land, the latest book in the Cork O' Connor mystery series, a thrilling prequel that takes us back to the early days of Cork's life as he works with his father, a police officer, to solve his first ever murder case, An instant New York Times bestseller, this prequel to the acclaimed Cork O'Connor series is "a pitch perfect, richly imagined story that is both an edge-of-your-seat thriller and an evocative, emotionally charged coming-of-age tale" ( Kristin Hannah, #1 New York Times bestselling author) about fathers and sons, small-town conflicts, and the events that shape our lives forever. Aurora is a small town nestled in the ancient forest alongside the shores of Minnesota's Iron Lake. In the summer of 1963, it is the whole world to twelve-year-old Cork O'Connor, its rhythms as familiar as his own heartbeat. But when Cork stumbles upon the body of a man he revered hanging from a tree in an abandoned logging camp, it is the first in a series of events that will cause him to question everything he took for granted about his hometown, his family, and himself. Cork's father, Liam O'Connor, is Aurora's sheriff and it is his job to confirm that the man's death was the result of suicide, as all the evidence suggests. In the shadow of his father's official investigation, Cork begins to look for answers on his own. Together, father and son face the ultimate test of choosing between what their heads tell them is true and what their hearts know is right. In this "brilliant achievement, and one every crime reader and writer needs to celebrate" (Louise Penny, #1 New York Times bestselling author), beloved novelist William Kent Krueger shows that some mysteries can be solved even as others surpass our understanding.

- -***i (39)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI received my mugs in perfect condition, exactly as described in the listing. They were both very VERY carefully wrapped in brown packing paper, then taped in styrofoam wrapping, and then packed into the box. There wasn't a single scratch, and they even had the original tags without any bending. Completely worth the price for the shipping and quality, in my mind same as brand new. Pleasantly surprised at the thoughtfulness and care, would definitely trust this seller and buy again.
