Comment:
This is the author’s first novel. The setting is Maine and Doiron seems to have a detailed, evocative handle on this state. That resonated with me. However, the few really exciting parts weren’t all that exciting or too surprising. This (rather bland) suspenseful tale explores both loyalty and betrayal wrapped around a manhunt whereby the opportunity to not only find a fugitive, but also oneself presents.
