Praise for Joseph Heywood's previous collection of short stories, Hard Ground "Heywood displays uncommon storytelling versatility in this brilliant collection of 27 tales about the game wardens who patrol Michigan's Upper Peninsula.... This volume should be read for pleasure, but would do equally well as an instruction manual for aspiring writers." --Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Joseph Heywood knows his poachers, deer-baiters, and road-beer-drinking yahoos, as well as his cross-dressing informants and Elvis impersonators, but his most compelling characters are the hardworking and embattled conservation officers, the quietly heroic men and women who enforce the law evenhandedly against a well-armed slice of citizenry. Heywood is at his finest and funniest in these short stories from Michigan's Upper Peninsula, where cold kills and night can be as 'black as the inside of a cow.' These detective stories are a great contribution to the rural American literary tradition, with nods to Mark Twain, Robert Travers, Jim Harrison, Cully Gage, and Dashiell Hammett." --Bonnie Jo Campbell, author of Once Upon a River and American Salvage, a National Book Award finalist "Joseph Heywood has a great ear for the vernacular of some of America's more colorful backwoods 'citizens,' the cast for this wild set of tales. Even more incredible is his ability to see into the wild hearts of a wide range of wonderfully flawed human beings and the cops and conservation officers who try to keep them under control. This is full throttle writing, the kind of stuff you can't put down to pick up the remote. Heywood is a compelling writer who has obviously done his time in the woods and lived to come back to tell us what it's really like out there." --Michael Delp, author of As If We Were Prey and The Last Good Water

Synopsis
A treasure chest of stories for Joseph Heywood fans, featuring the women game-warden colleagues of his mystery series star Grady Service. With Heywood's trademark ability to capture the eccentric characters of the Michigan wilderness, his wonderful ear for dialogue, and his vivid descriptions of hunting, fishing, and outdoorsmanship, these stories will delight Heywood fans and entice any reader who loves stories about the great outdoors or law-and-order. The game wardens in these stories not only have to contend with poachers, drug smugglers, and violent criminals, but they must also confront the challenges of being women in a wilderness law enforcement fraternity traditionally dominated by men., From the author of the beloved Grady Service and Lute Bapcat Mysteries and the critically acclaimed short-story collection Hard Ground, a new collection of stories, this time starring women game wardens and conservation officers in action and set in the wilderness of Michigan among poachers, drug smugglers, violent deaths, and more.

- s***e (46)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe book, "The Unbreakable Brain," is better than "as described". It looks like a brand new, unused book in excellent condition, which makes it a super value for the cost. It was shipped in a protective package with free shipping, yet another super value! I am incredibly pleased with this seller, and they even sent me a coupon to buy four and get two books free. That's a fantastic gift and quite generous! Thank you for being an excellent seller!
- v***3 (118)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseItem came as described and the price was good. Could have been packed better, as the item came damaged due to the shippers not handling the box with care. Just a small dent in the corner of a box set for book series. Not the biggest deal. Bubble wrap would have prevented this.
