First line/s: "Before I left for Florida my old friend and mentor Charley Stevens gave me a puzzling piece of advice."
My comments: Charley Stevens has disappeared, on his own, and Mike Bowditch is out hunting for him, following the breadcrumbs that he has left as a trail. The story is a bit convoluted and involves a lot of people, and it seems to get a little bit disjointed at times. Perhaps because it didn't hold my interest as much as the Bowditch stories usually do. And I think he's going to get back with Stacy Stevens, I don't know what the attractions is with her, but his current girlfriend, Danny, doesn't want kids and he really does so that's probably the direction that Doiron want to take him. He's 31 now, and ready to settle down, I think. Well, it'll be another year before we discover the next episode. I wish I'd liked this one a little bit better than I did.
Goodreads synopsis: A sudden disappearance reveals a startling connection to a 15-year-old cold case in the new thriller from bestselling Edgar Award finalist Paul Doiron.
“Never trust a man without secrets.” These are the last words retired game warden Charley Stevens speaks to his surrogate son, Warden Investigator Mike Bowditch, before the old man vanishes without explanation into a thousand miles of forest along the Canadian border. Mike suspects his friend’s sudden disappearance has to do with an antique badge found at a flea market — a badge that belonged to a warden who was presumed dead fifteen years ago but whose body was never recovered. On a mission to find Charley before he meets a similarly dark fate, Mike must reopen a cold case that powerful people, including his fellow wardens — one of whom might be a killer — will do anything to keep closed.
