Resumen del Editor
Anthony- and Edgar-award nominated author Paul Doiron delivers another "masterpiece of high-octane narrative" (Booklist) with Bad Little Falls, his newest harrowing thriller about the hunt for a murderer at the height of a major snowstorm.
Maine game warden Mike Bowditch has been sent into exile, transferred by his superiors to a remote outpost on the Canadian border. When a blizzard descends on the coast, Bowditch is called to the rustic cabin of a terrified couple. A raving and halffrozen man has appeared at their door, claiming his friend is lost in the storm. But what starts as a rescue mission in the wilderness soon becomes a baffling murder investigation. The dead man is a notorious drug dealer, and state police detectives suspect it was his own friend who killed him. Bowditch isn't so sure, but his vow not to interfere in the case is tested when he finds himself powerfully attracted to a beautiful woman with a dark past and a troubled young son. The boy seems to know something about what really happened in the blizzard, but he is keeping his secrets locked in a cryptic notebook, and Mike fears for the safety of the strange child. Meanwhile, an anonymous tormentor has decided to make the new warden's life a living hell. Alone and outgunned, Bowditch turns for assistance to his old friend, the legendary bush pilot Charley Stevens. But in this snowbound landscape—where smugglers wage blood feuds by night—help seems very far away indeed. If Bowditch is going to catch a killer, he must survive on his own wits and discover strength he never knew he possessed.
Reseñas de la Crítica
“Henry Leyva gives a solid performance in this third book in the Mike Bowditch mystery series…Leyva's varied Maine accents are convincing and interesting and make each character distinct…Leyva is at his best, however, portraying the complicated Bowditch with a quiet, even voice that captures the capable but struggling game warden.” —Audiofile Magazine
“When you combine the expertise of Doiron and the seasoned vocal talents of Henry Leyva (and his authentic Maine accents), we can't help but feel like we're on a ride along with Mike Bowditch, flying over the wilderness, being saturated with skunk spray, and trudging through the snow, as he tracks down a murderer and uncovers a deeply guarded secret.” —New World Review

The town is full of people who see everything, say little, and know more than they'll share with an outsider.

Historia
Joe Pickett is the new game warden in Twelve Sleep, Wyoming, a town where nearly everyone hunts and the game warden—especially one like Joe who won't take bribes or look the other way—is far from popular. When he finds a local hunting outfitter dead, splayed out on the woodpile behind his state-owned home, he takes it personally. There had to be a reason that the outfitter, with whom he's had run-ins before, chose his backyard, his woodpile to die in.

Mystery in the wilds of Downeast Maine
"Bad Little Falls", is an outstanding mystery set in a small town in the wilds of Downeast Maine. It revolves around a recurring character named Mike Bowditch, a registered Maine Guide (like the author, Paul Doiron), and a Maine Game Warden, and a member of the state's law enforcement, who, through the previous novel, has been reassigned to one of the remotest areas of the state, and perhaps, the U.S.
It starts in the middle of a severe winter, as if there any other kind there, as the sleeping town of Machias, the shire town of Washington County, discovers the activities of certain insomniac and dangerously troubled members of it's tiny community.
The writing is descriptive and heartfelt. The area residents are by and large, desperately poor, and easily taken advantage of. There are some very bad people here as well, and Mike Bowditch, a fish out of water (again, as detailed in Doiron's first novel, "The Poacher's Son"), though a big fish taken to a small pond, falls in to protect a single mother and her odd son from several human predators. It's a cracking good mystery, and read masterfully by Henry Leyva, who performs the unique Downeast accent with grace and respect, as well as Rene Auberjonois, to this listener's ear. I live nearby, down near Acadia National Park, and it's an incredibly complex drawl, but Leyva couldn't have sounded so authentic without Mr. Doiron's careful ear for the language of this far-flung area.
I highly recommend this, and look forward to another chapter in the life of Mike Bowditch, as he explores his new bailiwick.

Hooked on Maine
Love the sense of place in this series. The reader in the second and third books sounds like he's from New Jersey not Maine but that may be a good thing. Most folks probably couldn't make it thru the book if he had a real Maine accent (I've lived on the border of Maine and New Hampshire for the last 37 years). The reader does nicely capture the spirit of the character and his often near fatal flaw. Not your typical hero but not much about the real Maine is what people expect.

A DECENT NOVEL, BUT NOT AS GOOD AS HIS FIRST BOOKS
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Paul Doiron writes a pretty good story using the atmosphere of the Maine wilderness and the 'quirky' characters who live there.
I really enjoyed his first two books ('The Poacher's Son', 'Trespasser'), which were better than Bad Little Falls. Still, I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a "C.J. Box" type of mystery.
Overall, I found this novel to be a bit too much like his first two books, and I hope that Doiron can find some new ground with Mike Bowditch in his next novel.
Would you be willing to try another book from Paul Doiron? Why or why not?
Yes, I do enjoy the Mike Bowditch series. Paul Doiron has a talent for accurately describing the Maine wilderness and the readers do a very good job of bringing his characters to life.
What does Henry Leyva bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Henry Leyva gives a very good performance in reading this book. He brings a lot of energy and realism to the characters. Mr. Leyva actually lifted the overall quality of this story, in my opinion.
If this book were a movie would you go see it?
Not sure. I might wait for a few friends to recommend it. I think his previous book (Trespasser) would make a very good movie.
Any additional comments?
This series reminds me a lot of the C.J. Box and Steve Hamilton series of books. If you like Paul Doiron, then I highly recommend the Joe Pickett series by Box.

Excellent Mystery
I've been reading the Mike Bowditch mysteries in sequence and am enjoying the development of the character. Having lived in the North, I appreciate the accuracy and honesty conveyed in character development, setting description, and plot. The ending of this novel is complex, realistic, and satisfying. Hope you enjoy it too.

Keeps getting better.
I’m really starting to like the adventures of warden bowditch. Up to this point, the purchase of the next book was never certain, but after Bad Little Falls, I couldn’t get the next fast enough. I can’t wait to continue the series and I believe I am in it for the long haul.

Maine. Poverty Heroin And Lobster Rolls.
Another great novel by Paul Doiron. As a current resident of Maine who has witnessed first hand the seedy underbelly that lurks beneath the Lobsters and Vacation Land veneer I can say he has captured it perfectly.

Another great murder to solve in rural Maine
This was another enjoyable mystery set in rural Maine, following in the great lead of the first two Mike Bowditch books. In this story, a nearly frozen, disoriented guy appears on someone’s doorstep in a snowstorm. Bowditch, recently relocated to the new district, is nearby and finds the guy’s murdered friend. The book follows Bowditch as he solves this murder. As he follows the case, Bowditch gets romantically involved with the pretty sister of the near frozen guy and meets her bookish young son. While it is true that Bowditch frequently makes poor decisions, he is a mostly likable character. The plot moves quickly and the resolution made sense. Overall, it’s a ver entertaining and fast read.

Hero or Idiot?
When I listened to the first book in this series I was excited to have found a new author I could love. Then I listened to the second book and now this one and there seems to be a trend happening in each book. Instead of a competent warden who is passionate about protecting the environment Warden Bowdish is coming off as an incompetent detective wannabe who is more interested in shunning his superiors and doing his own thing. It doesn't set a very good example of the warden service. And as usual, a woman always seems to be a large part of his problems. For once it would be nice to listen to a great environmental story that doesn't involve some disfunctional relationship and an irresponsible law enforcement officer. C.J. Box is a great example of how these types of books can be both informative and entertaining.

Maine Game Warden "steps in it" again!!
Mike Bowditch is a Maine Game warden who constantly finds himself in conflict with his superiors. Being the infamous son of a dangerous man, now deceased--THE POACHER'S SON---does not help Mike's reputation. He has just recently been relegated to the "Down East" northernmost section of Maine, where people are dirt poor, mostly uneducated, and surrounded with illegal drug trade from Canada. Drugs and alcohol are a way of life for many of these folks, and a national floundering economy isn't helping matters.
Mike is called out on a cold winter's blustery day because a half frozen man has shown up on a couples' door step, claiming that his friend is missing in the snow. The friend is found dead, and presumed murdered. Once again, the police should takes things over at this point, but friends and other relationships keep Mike in the center of everything. He even becomes involved with the half frozen man's beautiful sister and her strange 12 year old son. Actually, this unusually lone boy's copious journals plays a very important roll in the story, with excerpts written into this book.
Descriptions of characters and scenery bring the reader right into the century of the story. So much so, that on the hottest day of the year in my area, I was left feeling cold as descriptions of snow drifts, ice ponds, and frost bit filled these pages. Mike's life and experiences with nature and the people of Maine grows more interesting with each further adventure. Good, evil, and the intermingling of the failings of mankind in day to day life should make for many more tales in this series.
The accents were superbe with this audio version. Truly added to the enjoyment of this book!!!
