Dozens of titles. Pretty ok writing. Best read in order to follow plots and characters.

Maine wildlife officer goes after poachers and other really bad criminals in the wild mountains and marshes.

Lots of birds and moose and deer and fish. And trees and bushwhacking. Snow and fog and mist and blackflies.

Not many nice people. Rough situations and crimes. Drugs, human trafficking, clear cutting. Climate change bringing mosquito viruses.

Bits of history and micro cultures like Acadians and Canadians (timely!) and fading lobstermen.

Spoiler: best character is Shadow, the illegal wolf dog.
