MANITOU CANYON by William Kent Krueger

MANITOU CANYON  by William Kent Krueger
When John Harris disappears on a fishing trip with his grandchildren, the two siblings do not give him up for lost.  The granddaughter convinces Cork O’Connor to help her find him in the Boundary Waters. A man is killed and Cork and the granddaughter are kidnapped.  The rest of the book details their experience in the wilderness as winter sets in and Cork’s daughter’s wedding comes ever closer.  
A good writer tells an intriguing story of betrayal, greed, love, family and friendship in this tale of the First Nations and looming ecological disaster.
