'Hatchet Island' by Paul Doiron

Hatchet Island (Mike Bowditch #13)Hatchet Island by Paul Doiron
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Maine Warden Investigator Mike Bowditch should know better than to try to vacation in his home state, because he happens on trouble when he does. This time he's paddling with his girlfriend Stacy Stevens, who wants to stop by an island where she had interned at a puffin sanctuary because an old friend was worried. After worry turns to the worst, Mike and Stacy help unravel a baffling set of circumstances on the sea-bird island and its close neighbor, where a wealthy and eccentric photographer who bought the island rules the roost.

As always, Mike is impatient, courageous, and unrelenting and the characters that surround him display the range of humanity found in Maine. Pride, greed, lust, and falls from grace vie with competence and conscious before the truth comes out. On his 13th outing, Paul Doiron's hero won't disappoint his fans and will keep new comers to this mystery series turning the pages.
