A riveting listen with my husband. We listened most of this rainy Sunday. It has rained so much our back yard is flooded. Meanwhile, we suspended our disbelief at times and yelled at the slowness of the FBI as they worked to unravel the identity of the kidnappers!

The author has a gift of placing right there in the beautiful Minnesota wilderness, experiencing the action along with characters we care about. We love the grace and tenderness, kindness and self-sacrifice that were all demonstrated. Character is king in this novel.

Here are my favorite quotes:
"Ever feel like you're holding a bag of scorpions and sooner or later you're going to have to put your hand inside?" I think we can all relate to this!

"Meloux had said he had a choice. He could keep company with despair or he could choose a different companion." This one seems very apt for the times we are living in.

Kathleen Glad you are enjoying the series. Love Krueger's descriptions of the Boundary Waters of Minnesota.
