Praise for Windigo Island:
"Edgar winner Krueger
highlights the vulnerability of
Native American youth in his
excellent 14th Cork
O'Connor novel. Krueger
paints a vivid picture of the
sordid cycle of poverty,
abuse, alcoholism, and
runaway (or throwaway)
children on the reservation,
and reminds us of the evil of
men all too willing to
exploit the innocent.”
—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Krueger’s latest in the Cork O’Connor series set
around Lake Superior and northern Minnesota is a
punch-to-the-gut blend of detective story and
investigative fiction…Krueger has written an
investigative novel as blistering and crucial in its
indictments of contemporary evil as The Jungle."
—Booklist (starred review)

William Kent Krueger
Krueger writes a mystery series
set in the north woods of
Minnesota. His protagonist is
Cork O’Connor, the former
sheriff of Tamarack County and a
man of mixed heritage—part
Irish and part Ojibwe. His work
has received a number of awards, including the
Minnesota Book Award, the Loft-McKnight Fiction
Award, the Anthony Award, the Barry Award, the
Dilys Award, and the Friends of American Writers
Prize. His last five novels were all New York Times
bestsellers.
Ordinary Grace, his stand-alone novel published in
2013, received the Edgar Award, given by the Mystery
Writers of America in recognition for the best novel
published in that year. Windigo Island, number
fourteen in his Cork O’Connor series, was released in
August 2014.
