nFor the first time in print, Skin and Bones features a collection of eight gripping original short stories in the bestselling Mike Bowditch series--including one brand new, never-before-published story--from Edgar-award nominated author Paul Doiron. n nIn THE BEAR TRAP, legendary Maine woodsman and bush pilot Charley Stevens tries to convince young Mike of the dangers awaiting rookie game wardens. n n RABID draws Mike into the story of a gruesome case involving a bat with rabies from his Charley Steven's past (2019 Edgar award nominee for Best Short Story). n n When a visiting hunter goes missing in the middle of a snowstorm, a young Charley Stevens sets off to rescue him--but begins to suspect the man may not want to be found in BACKTRACK. n n In THE IMPOSTER, Mike is confronted with a baffling case of stolen identity when he discovers a dead body whose driver's license claims he is none other than Mike Bowditch himself. n n Mike tracks down a sinister prowler who turns a couple's dream vacation home into a nightmare in THE CARETAKER. n n An investigation into the killing of a bald eagle in SKIN AND BONES unearths an old case of a missing young man whose physically abusive brother might have murdered him. n n In SNAKEBIT, Mike must hunt down a killer who uses the unlikeliest of murder weapons: rattlesnakes. n n (Brand New!) Mike suspects there's more to a grisly murder-suicide than meets the eye in SHEEP'S CLOTHING. n n Critically acclaimed for his brilliant crime novels, Paul Doiron proves he is also the master of short story in Skin and Bones.n
