Strange things are happening to the black bear population. Grady Service can't pin the phenomenon on anyone or anything until a Korean-born professor from Michigan Tech is murdered by cyanide-laced figs--and two freeze-dried bear gall bladders are found among the figs. Service is certain that poachers are at work, killing bears to fuel the Asian market for traditional medicines. The animal-parts market is highly organized, and its practitioners are ruthless and dangerous. Grady's nemesis, Michigan's governor, has cut budgets so severely that there are not enough conservation officers to cover the state. Service finds himself filling in for colleagues, chasing illusive poachers who leave little evidence, and wrestling with the usual cast of eccentric and entertaining characters. And there is a new twist in Grady's personal life: he meets a sixteen-year-old son he never knew he had. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSexy, suspenseful, and full of action, perfect dialogue, and unforgettable characters, \u003ci\u003eChasing a Blond Moon\u003c\/i\u003e confirms Heywood as one of the finest of his day.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-12028696\"\u003eJoseph Heywood\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lyons Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/27\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 488\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Mass Market Paperbound\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.10h x 4.20w x 1.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781493059157\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1493059157\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-FIC\"\u003eFiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-FIC022010\"\u003eMystery \u0026amp; Detective | Hard-Boiled\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJoseph Heywood \u003c\/b\u003eis the author of \u003ci\u003eThe Snowfly\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eCovered Waters\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Berkut\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eTaxi Dancer\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Domino Conspiracy\u003c\/i\u003e, the ten previous Woods Cop Mysteries, \u003ci\u003eHard Ground: Woods Cop Stories\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHarder Ground\u003c\/i\u003e, and the Lute Bapcat Mysteries \u003ci\u003eRed Jacket\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eMountains of the Misbegotten\u003c\/i\u003e.
