"In northern Minnesota, winter is full of dangers that can kill: Hard cold, hard men, and hungry wolves. Cary Griffith brings the menace of all three into play in his riveting new thriller. Returning to the childhood home he fled twenty years earlier, Sam Rivers finds himself battling a group of scheming reprobates and struggling against an avalanche of painful memories. Griffith''s intimacy with the territory he writes about comes through in every line. I loved this novel and recommend it highly. But I suggest you enjoy it under a warm blanket. Honestly, I''ve never read a book that evokes the fierce winter landscape of the North Country better than Wolf Kill ." -- William Kent Krueger , Edgar Award-winning author of This Tender Land "Griffith''s prose makes you feel the winter chill.


and the twisty plot delivers a chill down your spine. This is a Minnesota mystery with razor-sharp teeth." -- Brian Freeman , New York Times best-selling author of The Deep, Deep Snow "Up here in the North Country, we have a bounty of fine mystery writers. Krueger, Housewright, Eskins, Freeman, Mejia, Sanford. add to that list Cary Griffith, whose Wolf Kill thrills for its plotting, superb writing, and unforgettable characters, not least the brutal Minnesota winter. Sam Rivers is not only a fine sleuth, but a complicated man with a complicated history and a fair family grudge. Taken together, he''s a force, both on the page and long after you finish reading his story. Good thing there''s more of him to go around, and I''ll be first in line for the next Sam Rivers novel.

A deeply satisfying read." -- Mary Logue , author of Claire Watkins mysteries and The Streel The deep freeze of a Minnesota winter meets the chilling underbelly of a small Iron Range town in Cary Griffith''s fantastic Wolf Kill .
