Praise for Joseph Heywood’s Woods Cop Mystery series
“Heywood is a master of his form.”
—Detroit Free Press
“Crisp writing, great scenery, quirky characters and an absorbing plot add to the appeal….”
—Wall Street Journal
“Heywood has crafted an entertaining bunch of characters. An absorbing narrative twists and turns in a setting ripe for corruption.”
—Dallas Morning News
“Top-notch action scenes, engaging characters both major and minor, masterful dialogue, and a passionate sense of place make this a fine series.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Well written, suspenseful, and bleakly humorous while moving as quickly as a wolf cutting through the winter woods. In addition to strong characters and . . . compelling romance, Heywood provides vivid, detailed descriptions of the wilderness and the various procedures and techniques of conservation officers and poachers…. Highly recommended.”
—Booklist
“Joseph Heywood writes with a voice as unique and rugged as Michigan’s Upper Peninsula itself.”
—Steve Hamilton, Edgar® Award-winning author of The Lock Artist
