Learn moreLying face down on the floor with a gun to the back of his head is where Alex McKnight finds himself after a game of cards turns into a professional heist at the home of local developer Win Vargas. When the dust settles, McKnight is one of Police Chief Roy Maven's lead suspects. Worse, Vargas' own sense of vigilante justice has targeted the former private eye as well, and the brash millionaire may be responsible for the sudden disappearance of Alex's best friend, Jackie. Now, with officials pointed in the wrong direction and his closest allies either missing or in jail, Alex knows he is the only one who can uncover the truth. But McKnight can't possibly know how dark this conspiracy truly is—or how close to guilt he actually stands.

Reviews
“A fine showcase for Hamilton’s lithesome prose. The pace is brisk, the episodes often humorous, and the tale brims with an infectious reverence for its natural setting.”
“Superb…Hamilton keeps the action fast and furious and manages to keep the reader off balance almost as much as his hero.”
“A bracing, sometimes sidesplitting alternative detective novel.”
“North of Nowhere has a twisty plot with genuine surprises, but it’s the understanding of the people who live in the Upper Peninsula and the love for both the harshness and beauty of the Lake Superior shoreline that make this another good entry in a terrific series.”
“A fast-paced book with wonderful characters…Hamilton writes great prose.”
“A robust entry…Alex is at his best and the support cast augments the isolated feeling of going north of nowhere that shows why Steve Hamilton is an award-winning author.”
“Hamilton[’s]…tensile prose…reflects the dramatic, often violent contradictions of people who live on the edge of the world.”
“A brisk, well-plotted tale.”
