READ THE REVIEWS

"Deadly Turn gives the forest a voice. I haven’t read a book from cover to cover in years, but this novel delivered two days of nonstop suspense. Powerful human relationships intermingle with accurate descriptions of forests, ponds, rivers and streams; birds and the people who care about them become symbols of strength and resilience. From the opening sentence to the last, despite crimes perpetrated against it, Neily captures Maine’s Northern Forest with fierce love and inspired storytelling." -— Michael J. Good, Down East Nature Tours, Bar Harbor, Maine
