It is no huge secret I have turned into a huge William Kent Krueger fan, and love his main character Cork O'Connor that he writes about, and all of his other colorful quirky characters. This book is one of the few of Krueger's books that starts out slow and was a little harder to get into. Silly me I should have known, it's like putting a pan of cold water on the stove and waiting for it to boil. It doesn't take long and the water starts to heat up and before you know it is boiling over. Same goes with this book "Red Knife" it just gets better and better as the story develops! This mystery finds Cork O'Connor former sheriff of Aurora, MN caught in the middle of a mess, doe he follow his ties as a former sheriff and peacemaker and help out the new sheriff or does his blood run thicker as part Ojibwe Indian and he remains loyal to his roots? The plot thickens as the book moves forward and once again had me totally baffled as to who done what? I love the twists and turns that Krueger lays out as you go down the road, this one is no different as you race to turn the last page. The last 50 pages or so in this book absolutely sped by. Have your calendar empty as you approach the end as you won't be able to put this one down!
