Cyndi ‘s picks 

Iron Lake, by William Kent Krueger – Cork O’Connor, part Irish, part Anishinaabe Indian and former sheriff of Aurora, Minnesota must solve the brutal killing of a judge and the disappearance a Boy Scout during a blizzard. Gives you a great sense of northern Minnesota and the people that live there. This is the first of ten books featuring Cork O’Connor.

The Cold Blue Blood – Connecticut author, David Handler, has set his Mitch Berger and Desiree Mitry Mystery in the fictional village of Dorset, CT. Look for local landmarks such as Devil’s Hopyard and “The Purple Pup Saloon”. You’ll love the characters of Dorset, well, some of them. One of them has committed murder and hopes to get away with it.  There are presently eight books in the series.
