(Cork O'Connor #10)
305 pages / 10 hrs, 39 mins
"When the Atomic Energy Commission puts the Vermilion One Mine on its shortlist of potential sites for storage of nuclear waste, a barrage of protest erupts in Tamarack County, Minnesota, and Cork O'Connor is hired to head security.
"His first day on the job, Cork stumbles across a secret room with the remains of six murder victims inside. Five appear to be nearly half a century old - connected to what the media had dubbed "The Vanishings," a series of unsolved disappearances in the summer of 1964, when Cork's father was sheriff of Tamarack County. But the sixth has been dead less than a week...
"As Cork searches for answers, he must dig into the darker passages of his family's past. New threats surface, and unless Cork can unravel the tangled thread of clues quickly, more death is sure to come to Tamarack County."
I thought it was a pretty good mystery with half the story focused on Cork's past. It felt a little disjointed to me, but I had to wait for a missing disc so that may be part of the reason. I find this series interesting for the history and culture of the Ojibwe and also because the setting is similar to Michigan's U.P. where lived for a short time. I gave it 3 out of 5 stars.
