Highly recommended for fans of C.J. Box and Craig Johnson." --<i>Booklist</i> <p/>"Excellent . . . Thoughtful plotting and strong characters raise this above the crime novel pack." --<i>Publishers weekly (starred review)</i> <p/>"Vivid local characters and wild Maine landscapes, as well as a satisfying mystery. Recommended for readers who appreciate maverick backwoods investigators like Steve Hamilton's Alex McKnight." --<i>Library Journal</i> <p/>"<i>Bad Little Falls</i> is a jewel of a book. Doiron has gotten it all magnificently right: a hell of a good mystery, beautifully drawn landscape and characters so evocatively written they follow you off the page. Buy this. The guy can write." --<i>Nevada Barr, New York Times bestselling author of Rope</i> <p/>"A high-stakes, high-tension yarn in which you keep wishing everything would turn out fine for the deeply flawed, deeply sympathetic hero." --<i>Kirkus</i> <p/>"Excellent . . . a murder case with some truly wicked twists. Dorion matches strong characters with effective prose and subtle characterizations. Fans of Steve Hamilton's Alex McKnight series, likewise set in a remote region close to Canada, will find a lot to like." --<i>Publishers Weekly (starred review)</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Bestselling author PAUL DOIRON is the editor in chief of <i>Down East: The Magazine of Maine. </i>A native of Maine, he attended Yale University and holds an MFA from Emerson College.
