InTrickster's Point, the 12th suspenseful installment in Krueger's Cork O' Connor series, Cork is framed for the murder of Minnesota's first Native American governor-elect, Jubal Little. As Cork fights to clear his name and uncover the truth, he discovers that events from his own past may hold the key to the real killer's identity.

"I give this Cork O'Connor book my "best story in a series" award. It was worth the wait....and left me wanting to turn another page. The book stands alone (so if it is your first William Kent Krueger read, you won't be left wondering about references to earlier books.) But Krueger only provides O'Connor family background when background is essential (so if you have, like me, read all of the others in the series, you won't get bored by the repetition.) The Ojibwa mystic tradition is interestingly presented and makes me want to learn more; the beauty and wildness of northern Minnesota is drawn with a brilliant word palette reminding me of personal soul-searching times spent paddling the Boundary Waters and walking the shores of Lake Gichigami. "The opposite of love is not hate but fear.""

Quotes

  • “Although there’s plenty of excitement in this plot, Krueger is moving deeper into psychological territory with each book is this series.”

    — St. Paul Pioneer Press
  • “While the murder mystery is an essential element of the novel, more important is the look at the relationships of the various characters, to each other and to the locale.” 

    — Midwest Book Review

    " William Kent Krueger is an incredibly talented author who has created an excellent series of characters. After reading the first few books in this series, many of these characters become "friends." I am grateful for the opportunity to visit them again. Honestly, I don't even try to remember the plot after the fact, I'm just happy to go along for the ride. While some of the books in this series are better than others, none of them are bad. And all I have left to say is that if you read any of these novels and you aren't touched at least a little bit, you have no heart. "

    " Krueger is an excellent writer. The Cork O'Connor series is very well done -- start at the beginning -- each store builds on the character development that occured in the ones before. Beautifully written, engaging stories, multi-faceted characters. Highly recommend this mystery series set near the Boundary Waters in Minnesota. "

    " I thought Trickster's Point was excellent. One of my favorites by Kent Krueger. Right up there with Thunder Bay and Vermilion Drift. I enjoyed his reading from this book at Common Good Books in St. Paul, MN. "

    " I liked this book, mainly because I've read all of this series and the characters appeal to me. I think Krueger has begun to bring a lot more Ojibwe lore into his novels. I didn't think this book was as interesting as some past novels. Still, enjoyed it and will read more. "
