Synopsis

Nick Polchak must stop a terrorist from causing a global ecological nightmare.

Two beautiful women from Nick's past are competing for his heart.

He's not sure which impending disaster makes him more nervous.

When forensic entomologist Nick Polchak is called to the scene of a murder on a small organic farm in North Carolina he is astonished to find that the victim's estranged wife is an old friend, a woman he once worked with—a woman he once had feelings for. When she asks Nick to investigate her husband's drug-related murder, Nick seeks the assistance of Alena Savard, the reclusive dog trainer known to the people of northern Virginia as the Witch of Endor.

Alena jumps at the chance to renew her relationship with Nick—but when she arrives in North Carolina she discovers that she's not the only woman who has her eye on the Bug Man. Soon Nick finds his usually analytical mind clouded by thoughts of a strangely human nature. These two women have stirred feelings that he can't quite fathom, feelings of lost opportunities and future possibilities . . .

Now Nick must navigate the unexplored territory of his own heart while he solves an agroterrorist's plot to ignite an environmental holocaust that could spread to the ends of the earth.

Hooray, and pass the chunks of beef liver! Nick Polchak is back, and he is as delightfully brilliant and bone-headed as ever! If you’re not familiar with award-winning author Tim Downs’ unusual protagonist from any of the previous 4 mystery novels in the Bug Man series, you’re in for a treat. His bl......more

Goodreads review by Shelby on February 24, 2017

Fast read, mildly entertaining, not as compelling as the previous books in this series. I couldn't help feeling that the author didn't really grasp the organic foods concept. There is no way three people are gonna stand around discussing what they know about the bad guy when said bad guy has a lethal......more

Goodreads review by Catherine on February 06, 2016

Another great Tim Downs' book! I have one tiny beef--but if I mention, I'd be guilty of revealing too much--it'd be a spoiler. Suffice to say, this novel has a terrific tightly written plot with all the wit and informational tidbits I've grown to love in previous Bug Man books. I feel well-acquainte......more

Goodreads review by Tracey on March 09, 2015

I love the bug man novels. They make me laugh out loud and are full of intrigue and mystery. Fast read as well; I can't put it down. I am frustrated with the end of this book though because of the cliff hanger. I can't get the last book soon enough.......more
