Praise for Strike Dog
“Heywood just keeps getting better and better. . . . Strike Dog is a page-turner in the grand tradition.”—Jerry Dennis, author of The Living Great Lakes
"Engrossing stuff. Lots of well-plotted action and an offbeat, affecting love story."--Kirkus Reviews (for Running Dark)
"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 (for Chasing a Blond Moon)
"A gripping plot, replete with memorable surrounds and spiky characters, makes this second in the series (after Ice Hunter) an excellent choice for most collections. A good pick also for readers who enjoy outdoor mysteries by such authors as Nevada Barr or Dana Stabenow."
--Library Journal (for Blue Wolf in Green Fire)
"Crisp writing, great scenery, quirky characters and an absorbing plot add to the appeal of the memorable first entry in a promised series of "woofs cop' mysteries."
--Wall Street Journal (for Ice Hunter)
