William Kent Krueger

William Krueger is an American author and crime writer born on November 16, 1950 in Torrington, Wyoming, born as a the third child of four children. William is well known for his Cork O’Connor series of books, which is set mainly in Minnesota, USA. Before William graduated from high school, he had lived in eleven different houses, in eight different cities and in six different states in America. In this period, he was not yet old enough to realize what was happening with his family. However later after he grew up, he realized that they used to move from one house to the other every time the rent was due, as he explains. Since he spent most of his best years in Hood River, Oregon, he always honors this place every time people want to know where he came from.
