Tamarack County
Tamarack County: A Novel | William Kent Krueger
8 posts | 12 read | 7 to read
Cork O’Conner returns for “hold-your-breath suspense” (Booklist, starred review) in the thirteenth novel in the New York Times bestselling mystery series. During a blizzard one bitter winter night, just days before Christmas, the car belonging to the wife of a retired local judge is discovered abandoned on a rural county road in Tamarack County. After days of fruitless searching, there is little hope that she’ll be found alive, if she’s found at all. Cork O’Connor, the ex-sheriff of Tamarack County, notices small things about the woman’s disappearance that disturb him. When the beloved pet dog of a friend is brutally killed and beheaded, he begins to see a startling pattern in these and other recent dark occurrences in the area. And after his own son is brutally attacked and nearly killed, Cork understands that someone is spinning a deadly web in Tamarack County. At its center is a murder more than twenty years old, for which an innocent man may have been convicted. Cork remembers the case only too well. He was the deputy in charge of the investigation that sent the man to prison. With the darkest days of the year at hand, the storms of winter continue to isolate Tamarack County. Somewhere behind the blind of all that darkness and drifting snow, a vengeful force is at work. And Cork has only hours to stop it before his family and friends pay the ultimate price for the sins of others.

One of the real joys of reading this series is the attention Krueger pays to characters. The lead, Cork O‘Conner is fantastic but so too is his family which features prominently in all of these books. Never more so than in this one which has Cork trying to solve a murder & the same time one of his children is navigating a difficult decision. Another excellent installment which shows how complex it is to be human & care for others.

This one was edge-of-your-seat suspenseful in a sophisticated way; while exploring universally human domains: trust, vision, the mystical, love, vengeance, and morality, among others. Seems I might never get enough of Krueger…

In this book, the only member of Cork‘s family not having some kind of crisis is Jenny. Ann is home from the convent early, and it‘s clear something is going on but she‘s not talking. Stephen — at 17 — is beginning to form his own spiritual beliefs. And Cork, while solving a disappearance and learning something about a murder from the past, is examining his views on violence. There‘s a lower body count than is usual for this series. #audiowalk

Just a few hours left in this book and no dead human bodies yet except for one from the past. There‘s a lot of emphasis on the personal lives of two of the kids. It was a beautiful day for a walk. #audiowalk

It was 54° here in the morning. I woke up to the heater because my husband turned it on. I‘m the person who waits to do that until it‘s cold all day because when it hits 80°, you just have to turn it back off. More Cork O‘Connor for walking. I love the water lilies and the beauty berries. #audiowalk
