Fox Creek
William Kent KruegerSarah WeinmanThis genuinely thrilling and atmospheric novel brims with characters who are easy to root for. The pacing isn’t perfect ... but when Cork, Henry and the others faced mortal danger, my heart leaped into my throat. For those new to the series, “Fox Creek” is a strong entry point.
