If You Like Ron Corbett Books, You’ll Love…

The first book in the Frank Yakabusky Mystery series is called Ragged Lake. Frank is called to an old mill town in the Northern Divide when a tree-marker discovers a family murdered in their cabin. He is coming to try and solve the murder, but no one in the nearly abandoned town is talking. His investigation definitely ruffles some feathers in the small village and he is soon not only trying to solve this crime, but protect his own life as well as some of the other innocent people in the town.

The Last Guide: A Story of Fish and Love is Corbett’s love letter to fishing and to one of its oldest fishing guides. The book takes us to Algonquin Park where Frank Kuiack is the oldest fishing guide out there and he has dedicated his love to it. The book is filled with rich anecdotes about Kuiack’s career and is a loving tribute to Frank, as well as to the type of people like him who have considered the wilderness to be their true home. It’s hard to classify this book as it’s part journalism and part novel style recreations of Frank’s life, but it is a wonderful story of one of the last men to earn a living as a fishing guide in Algonquin Park.
