Primeros reseñadores

Game warden Mike Bowditch returns home to his cabin one sweltering summer night to find on his answering machine an alarming voice from the past: his father Jack, a volatile, hard-drinking poacher. The next day, Mike learns that police have begun an all-out search for the man who killed a timber company exec and a beloved local cop the night before—and his father is their prime suspect. Jack has escaped from police custody, and only Mike believes that his tormented father might not be guilty. Now, alienated from the woman he loves, shunned by colleagues who have no sympathy for the suspected cop-killer, Mike must come to terms with his tortured past. He knows firsthand Jack’s brutality, but is the man capable of murder? Desperate and alone, he strikes up an uneasy alliance with a retired warden pilot, and together the two men journey deep into the Maine wilderness in search of a runaway fugitive. But the only way for Mike to save his father is to find the real killer—which could mean putting everyone he loves in the line of fire. THE POACHER’S SON is a sterling debut of literary suspense. Taut and engrossing, it represents the first in a series featuring Mike Bowditch.
