In Trickster’s Point, the 12th suspenseful installment in Krueger’s Cork O’Connor series, Cork is framed for the murder of Minnesota’s first Native American governor-elect, Jubal Little.

Best is series...to date.

I give this Cork O'Connor book my "best story in a series" award. It was worth the wait....and left me wanting to turn another page. The book stands alone (so if it is your first William Kent Krueger read, you won't be left wondering about references to earlier books.) But Krueger only provides O'Connor family background when background is essential (so if you have, like me, read all of the others in the series, you won't get bored by the repetition.) The Ojibwa mystic tradition is interestingly presented and makes me want to learn more; the beauty and wildness of northern Minnesota is drawn with a brilliant word palette reminding me of personal soul-searching times spent paddling the Boundary Waters and walking the shores of Lake Gichigami. "The opposite of love is not hate but fear."

Krueger can tell a story

Even if it takes 40+ Chapters to do it! The story dragged along, as it usually does with a cast of culprits and a host of sorted mot

Loved It!

Krueger is a great natural storyteller. David Chandler makes the words and story, the characters come alive. We can't wait to hear the next in the series.

Good twists and turns

Again, the author develops the story and entwines the characters. Not sure of the whole story dune it until the end.

This book is part of a series but can be read without prior knowledge of characters as author gives enough clues to connect with the “past “ of characters.

The best O'Connor book yet

I have to say that this is the best Cork O'Connor book I've read it yet. I read another review that was critical of the weaving of the backstory into the current story. But that's what made it so special to me. It was like getting two books in one. I'm glad David Chandler is back as the narrator. And the prayer Stephen offered at the end was the perfect ending.

Trickert's Point a Sad story

I enjoy the Cork O'Connor series, but this story was one of pain and sadness. William Kent Krueger is a good writer and I do enjoy his books; however, this one seem to dwell on the past. Apparently I have missed the book in which Cork's wife dies and Cork now seems to be at odds with his life. I understand grief and the spiritual side of life; I suppose this is one of the reasons I do like to read Krueger as he adds spirituality to all his writings. I would recommend this book for someone who enjoys mysteries and what can I say about David Chandler's narration other than he is a class act; he is one of my favorite narrators!
