Publisher's summary

The award-winning author of the best-selling Cork O’Connor series, William Kent Krueger pens novels with pulse-racing suspense. In Windigo Island, the corpse of an Ojibwe girl washes ashore, and locals at the Bad Bluff reservation believe it to be the work of the mythical Windigo. But the dead girl’s friend is also missing, and sheriff-turned-PI Cork O’Connor will brave any danger to bring her home.

Not my favorite Cork book

I love this series and the characters, and I liked this book, but it was far from my favorite. It seemed like some of the main characters were acting against type and out of character to fit the story line. Other characters were conveniently out of the way and Rose was just conveniently there for the summer? It wasn’t bad, but it all just struck me as odd. I thought it was sort of clunky compared to the other books in the series.

Great narrator. Great author.

I love David Chandler’s narration. Another great story. Each book chronicles more about Cork and his family.

Moving story w/ important message

The story of sex trafficking of young girls is hard to hear and all too real. Krueger not only writes an entertaining story, but also calls attention to a societal problem that weighs particularly heavily on Native American communities for reasons well expressed and explained in this book.

Characters are Great

I love this author. I just wish he would clean up the foul language especially using God’s name in vain

One of my favorites by WKK

One of my favorites in the series by William Kent Krueger. I like how each book spotlights different characters. This one has a bigger role for Cork’s oldest daughter. Enjoy this narrator as well.

Dark Tale Well Written and Performed

I listened to this books in parts. It speaks to the discrimination of Native Peoples, and the content is sometimes hard to hear and accept How has this hatred and greed been allowed to live on in our country in modern day times? I feel as if I followed along with Cork, and Jenny and Malu to the end on their difficult journey and encounter with the Windigo.

Moving

This story has been quite moving for me as person and the way of my outlook on life. I always believed that I am meant for a greater purpose and this book/series has pushed my outlook on life and spirituality further into the direction I have always believed in. Thank you William and thank you Cork for sharing the experience of true struggle in this crazy; unpredictable world that we live in. Love and caring for others in need is really the secret to a happy and fulfilling life. Thank you
