Description
The New York Times bestselling author of Ordinary Grace weaves a vivid and pulse-pounding thriller that follows Cork O'Connor's search for a missing man amid the fraught tensions at the border between Arizona and Mexico.
On the Fourth of July, just as fireworks are about to go off in Aurora, Minnesota, Cork O'Connor and his new bride Rainy Bisonette receive a desperate phone call from Rainy's son, Peter. The connection is terrible but before the line goes dead, they hear Peter confess to the murder of someone named Rodriquez.

The following morning, Cork and Rainy fly to southern Arizona, where Peter has been working as a counselor in a well-known drug rehab center. When they arrive, they learn that Peter was fired six months earlier and hasn't been heard from since. So they head to the little desert town of Sulfur Springs where Peter has been receiving his mail. But no one in Sulfur Springs seems to know him. They do, however, seem to recognize the name Rodriguez. Apparently, the Rodriguez family is one of the cartels controlling everything illegal that crosses the border from Mexico.

As they gather scraps of information about Peter, Cork and Rainy are warned time and again that there is a war going on along the border. "Trust no one in Coronado County," is the most common piece of advice they receive, and Cork doesn't have to be told twice. To him, Arizona is alien country. The relentless heat, the absence of water and big trees and shade all feel nightmarish to him, as does his growing sense that Rainy might know more about what's going on than she's willing to admit in this fresh, exhilarating, and white-knuckle mystery starring one of the greatest heroes of fiction.

        June 26, 2017
        Former sheriff Cork O’Connor, Edgar-winner Krueger’s tragedy-plagued hero, faces further heartache in his moving and suspenseful 16th outing (after 2016’s Manitou Canyon). Cork, who lost his father and his first wife to violence, is in bed with his second wife, Rainy Bisonette, a Native American healer, one night in Aurora, Minn., when Rainy retrieves a disturbing voicemail from her son Peter, who’s been living in Arizona. Peter has turned his troubled life around, kicking his drug habit and using the lessons he learned to become a substance abuse counselor. His garbled message, however, seems to indicate that he has killed someone named Rodriguez. Cork and Rainy race to Arizona, where they’re stunned to learn that Peter left his job more than a year earlier. As they search for Peter, Cork becomes increasingly uneasy about his growing sense that Rainy is hiding something significant from him. As usual, Krueger does a fine job combining distinctive characters with a satisfying plot. Agent: Danielle Egan-Miller, Browne & Miller Literary Associates.

        Originally scheduled for September, this new novel by Edgar Award winner Krueger sends private investigator Cork O'Connor from his forest-shaded Minnesota home to brutally hot Arizona, where new wife Rainy's son Peter has disappeared after calling to claim that he murdered someone named Rodriguez. No one in the town where he's been receiving mail seems to know Peter. But everyone knows Rodriguez, head of a Mexican cartel.

        Cork O'Connor is the former sheriff of Tamarack County, Minnesota, and current burger-joint owner and part-time private eye. In 14 previous mysteries, O'Connor has used his deep knowledge of the Northwoods to track killers and survive when he himself is tracked (as in the pulse-pounding Manitou Canyon, 2016). Now Cork has to venture far afield, to southern Arizona, in order to trace the whereabouts of his new bride's son, who leaves a garbled phone message saying he has killed someone. Some of the worth of the O'Connor series, which gives readers an intimate knowledge of the Northwoods, gets lost in the transition to Arizona. O'Connor continually complains about the region's heat and scenery. Readers may wonder why Krueger takes his hero on this trip in the first place. The son's background (former drug addict become drug counselor) is intriguing, as is the Twilight Zone quality of everyone he said he knew in Arizona denying any knowledge of him. The action is pretty desultory until various strands come together (including the workings of a terrifying cartel) for a satisfying conclusion.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2017, American Library Association.)
