Approaches the task of an introduction by asking, if we read this text in this way, what voices do we hear ? Such a reading strategy requires historical imagination (because the documents are separated from us by time, space, language and culture) and making these texts conversation partners in our understanding about God and ourselves.

The Quetico-Superior Wilderness: more than two million acres of forest, white-water rapids, and uncharted islands of the Canadian/American border. Somewhere in the heart of this unforgiving territory, a young woman named Shiloh—a country-western singer at the height of her fame—has disappeared.Her father arrives in Aurora, Minnesota, to hire former sheriff Cork O'Connor to find his daughter, and Cork joins a search party that includes an ex-con, two FBI agents, and a ten-year-old boy. Others are on Shiloh's trail as well—men hired not just to find her, but to kill her.As the expedition ventures deeper into the wilderness, strangers descend on Aurora, threatening to spill blood on the town's snowy streets. Meanwhile, out of the Boundary Waters, winter falls hard. Cork's team of searchers loses contact with civilization, and like the brutal winds of a Minnesota blizzard, death—violent and sudden—stalks them.

Krueger follows up his sure-handed debut novel, Iron Lake (1998), with an e qually effective second thriller featuring former Chicago cop, now former l ocal sheriff Cork O'Connor and his adventures in the warm- spirited little t own of Aurora, Minn., and the harsh wilderness that surrounds it. The durab le O'Connor, who used to watch over the territory as sheriff until he was v oted out of office in a personal and professional meltdown, now tends a bur ger stand but still has a reputation as a go-to guy when trouble arises. It does so in the form of William Raye, an aging country singer who's looking for his daughter, Shiloh, a famous rock musician who disappeared several m onths earlier into the Boundary Waters, the thickly forested, lake-dotted a rea to the north. O'Connor isn't looking for work, but he takes the case be cause Shiloh is an Aurora native, and O'Connor hopes someone would do the s ame for him if any of his three kids were lost. Before he can even head int o the woods, FBI agents show up, as well as an old casino gangster from Las Vegas. They, too, all want Shiloh found, but none will say exactly why. O' Connor, accompanied by two agents plus Raye, and a father and son from the local Anishinaabe tribe, packs up and heads out by canoe in what becomes a gritty, bloody adventure of considerable emotional depth. The action is def tly interspersed with glimpses of the terror Shiloh is enduring in the wild ernessAat the hands of those who would bury an old crimeAand with tense sce nes back in Aurora, where O'Connor's family and other townsfolk worry about the operation's success. Krueger's writing, strong and bold yet with the m.
