Trespasser is the second novel in Doiron's Mike Bowditch series, where Maine game Warden Mike Bowditch finds himself in the middle of a criminal investigation that takes over his life.  However, unlike his first novel, The Poacher's Son, in this story Bowditch doesn't have the personal tie to the crime, yet he pursues it with the same fervor and recklessness.  By now, the Bowditch formula is pretty clear, yet the story is still quite entertaining.  Mark down Trespasser as a good true-crime, suspense novel.
