ICE HUNTER
by Joseph Heywood
Conservation Officer Grady Service thinks nothing could be worse than the early release of Limpy Allerdyce, incorrigible poacher and attempted murderer, who’s returned from prison to the pristine vistas of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula just in time for the busy summer season. Then the body of Limpy’s son is pulled from a fire with a bullet in the back. Heywood (The Snowfly, 2000, etc.) spices Grady’s debut with signs of corruption deeper than a midwinter snow stretching all the way from industrial polluters to the statehouse.
