Winter in the Heart

David Poyer's insights into the complexities of human nature, business relationships, the outdoors and the ecology all come together in this writing. I have read the other three novels in the Hemlock County series, but wish I had read them in different order. Poyer is a brilliant craftsman and an engaging story teller. He has a way of making you feel, taste and smell each situation. I hope he continues this series...

Great read - not really a courtroom thriller

Synopsis: The story of a small Pennsylvania oil town that has seen its better days and some of the unique characters that come together to expose a devious plan to dump toxic wastes into the surrounding countryside. My review: This is a great read. It is advertised as a courtroom thriller but that is just as accurate as saying the movie "The Princess Bride" is a childhood bedtime story. True, it is, but it is so much more. In this case, the story is framed by about 10 pages of courtroom stuff just to give the story a bit of context, but it really is just a plain old novel - with all the foibles and follies that accompany good character creation.
