Meet Grady Service: a former Marine, renowned tracker, Conservation Officer, and thelast person any errant hunter wants to cross. In Ice Hunter, the first of a series ofmysteries set in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, Service defends his turf with the tenacity of abear and the wisdom of an ancient. He shuns all creature comforts and consumerism and ismost at home stalking the Mosquito Tract, his self-designated wilderness and the land protected by his CO father before him. Times are not easy for Service. As this summer seasonopens, he gets news that his nemesis, the despicable leader of an incestuous clan of poachers,is about to be released from prison. But something even more sinister is afoot in the MosquitoWilderness--something that inspires greed far beyond the hunter going over his limit, something that involves giants of industry and politics (including the governor of the State ofMichigan)--something that too easily renders human life dispensable.
