Description
A murder at a logging town in Minnesota sets off a chain of events that draws former sheriff Cork O'Connor into an investigation. An explosion at Karl Lindstrom's lumber mill claims the life of the night watchman, and suspicion falls on the wealthy industrialist. With mixed feelings about the case, Cork agrees to help, but danger lurks around every corner. As he delves deeper into the mystery, Cork must navigate complex relationships and resentments that threaten to destroy lives. The ancient pines of the region hold a sacred significance for the Anishinaabe tribe, adding depth to the already tense situation. Suspense builds as Cork confronts the truth behind the murder, but the closer he gets to the truth, the more he realizes that nothing is as it seems in this small town.
