Its a continuation of the preceding one & probably should be a single book....except for the publisher, I imagine! It's pretty exciting and it's readable. It's got some cool characters, including one bad ass ex-FBI lady. I wondered about the introduction of a cougar in the early stages of the listen; then it became clear at the end. Fun read, on to #7. ( ) I have been enjoying this series, and as with all series some books are better than others. For me, this one was one of my favorites so far - finished it over a weekend! Enjoyed the characters, both old and new and felt it addressed a serious issue that we face in our country. As an ex-teacher we always talked about the "lost children" those kids seem to disappear from the system. Looking forward to more adventures with Cork and gang. Copper River by William Kent Krueger is the 6th book in his excellent Cork O’Connor series. This book picks up right after the preceding one as a contract for his life has been put out and in order to keep his family safe, he leaves and goes into hiding. He knows this is temporary as the man who blames him for the death of his sons will soon find out the truth. Before Cork gets away completely though he is attacked and wounded. He makes his way to the remote Upper Peninsula of Michigan where he has a cousin, Jewell. She is a widow with a son called Ren, and she agrees to look after him. He doesn’t realize that he has run into even more danger here as there is an on-going conspiracy that includes multiple kidnappings, rape and murder. Keeping Ren and his friends safe becomes Cork’s number one priority. I can’t gush enough about this book, or indeed, this series. The writing is absorbing and suspenseful, the characters well developed and interesting and the author’s sense of place gives us a strong feeling for the north woods that stand alongside the shores of Lake Superior. Copper River was a wonderful read and I am looking for more from this creative and versatile author. I feel like a broken record but I continue to love the Corc O'Connor series. They are just so restful which is an odd thing to say about a mystery/thriller I know. I just contine to be absorbed by WKK's writing and love watching Corc do his thing. This one wraps up the mystery that started in [b:Mercy Falls|785395|Mercy Falls (Cork O'Connor, #5)|William Kent Krueger|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1388202172s/785395.jpg|771393]. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension

William Kent Krueger has won two Anthony Awards for his gripping Cork O'Connor mysteries. Set in remote areas of the northwest, each book in the series launches the Minnesota lawman into challenges that push his endurance to new limits. Part Irish, part Native-American, Sheriff Cork O'Connor serves the remote territory of Tamarack County, Minnesota. But big trouble is brewing: a powerful man believes O'Connor killed his son. Now there's a price on the sheriff's head and a bullet in his leg. He finds refuge with his cousin, Jewell, and her teenage son, Ren, in their tiny Michigan town. But when Ren and his friends are threatened, O'Connor must risk his cover to find out why. Copper River opens with a terrifying scene that sets the tone for the suspense that grows stronger with each succeeding chapter. The narrator's taut performance underscores O'Connor's vulnerability and his vigilance. "Krueger has moved to the head of the crime fiction class."-Chicago Sun-Times.
