Three long-time friends, John, Meech and Hoxie, have decided to take a trip for some trout fishing in Maine’s remote Moosehead wilderness. John is hoping that the trip will be conciliatory after learning of the resentment Meech has for Hoxie over Meech’s breakup with his wife, since it was John who was secretly in love with Meech’s wife for years. The animosity between them ignites when Meech, high on his own ego, kills a huge bull moose that was the embodiment of the wilderness spirit for John and Hoxie.
A confrontation between the three of them and a game warden results in murder. John, Meech and Hoxie create an unhallowed unity of secrecy and return to New Jersey while the town of Greenville mourns the death of the game warden, until John decides to return to Maine.
They say that the criminal always returns to the scene of the crime. What will John discover?
It’s well thought out, and for only $3.99, very much worth your time.

Compelling book, capturing the raw envious emotion that makes us human. Also has a very accurate depiction of a New England lifestyle.
This novel is original and compelling to read. Martin's style is engaging. I couldn't put the book down and could read it over and over again.
I was not sure when I started to read the book,but soon found that I could not put it down. Love the story line.Would like to know if the author has more.
A friend of mine has recommended me 'Winter Soon' by David Michael Martin and I'm so glad that she did! The book is divided into three parts - the event, the investigation and the aftermath and all three are very exciting but also very insightful when it comes to human psychology. I literally couldn't stop reading and got into the story only after a few pages! The author goes deeper and deeper, keeps you guessing and doesn't reveal all of the secrets right until the end. It is a real page turner and I'd really recommend it to anyone in a search for a good read! 5 stars
