Thriller | Mystery

Grady Service, the hardboiled conservation officer of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, is back with a vengeance and facing the most difficult case of his career. In Strike Dogβ€” the fifth book in this superb seriesβ€”a serial killer is knocking off the best conservation officers in each state. The killings are ritualistic and the victims are mutilated in a manner with roots in Viking warfare. Service learns he is next on the list. The FBI brings him on the case, both to protect him and because of his incredible tracking abilities. But Service needs no protection. He’s out for blood himself. The killer has murdered his girlfriend, Nantz, and his son, Walter. Alone, and devastated, Service must navigate the terrain of his own grief as well as the twisted mind of the serial killer.

In this brilliant psychological drama with nail-biting suspense, the hunted becomes the hunter. Service must draw on all he has learned in the jungles of Vietnam and the Upper Peninsula’s woods to stalk the killer. Will his foe succeed in achieving his twisted glory of a perfect record? Or will Service be able to outwit him and enact his own grim revenge?
