Book 97: "The Poacher's Son" by Paul Doiron

     "The Poacher's Son" takes place along the real coast of Maine and its Northern Woods--not the one the tourists know.  This first book from Paul Doiron, editor-in-chief at "Down East" magazine, may very well leave readers wanting more of Maine game warden Mike Bowditch.
     Here is "Publisher's Weekly" plot description:  "Game warden Mike Bowditch, who hasn't heard from his dad, Jack, in two years, wonders what the man wants from him after Jack leaves a cryptic message on his answering machine.  Mike later learns that his father is the prime suspect in the murders of a cop and timber executive.  Jack, a brutal alcoholic, makes his living poaching game, but Mike can't believe that his father is a cold-blooded murderer."
