North of Nowhere: Alex McKnight Novels Series, Book 4
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
"I really like his main character, Alex McKnight, and I'm ready to revisit Paradise, Michigan." —James Patterson
Step into the vivid, intense universe of North of Nowhere, where mysteries envelop Michigan's upper peninsula. With stakes as high as the dignity of former Detroit cop Alex McKnight, every turn of the page is steeped in anticipation.
The story takes an abrupt turn from an exhilarating gamble to a professionally orchestrated heist that leaves Alex under a harsh spotlight of suspicion, his honor hanging by a thread. Amidst the turmoil and confusion, Alex discovers the unwelcome companionship of a vigilante, equally determined to unveil the truth, regardless of the cost. The narrative unearths the deepest secrets, revealing a conspiracy darker than even Alex could have anticipated.
North of Nowhere is a riveting exploration of envy, guilt, and desperation. Its fast-paced narrative takes the reader on a rollercoaster ride of emotion and suspense in the picturesque surroundings of Michigan.

Starred review from March 18, 2002
No longer a cop, inactive as a private eye, classic loner Alex McKnight has retreated to his lakeside cabin in this superb yarn, Edgar-winner Hamilton's fourth after 2001's The Hunting Wind. In fact, Alex has become so much a recluse in the little town of Paradise in Michigan's Upper Peninsula that his few friends are worried about him. That leads Jackie Connery, the Scottish-raised proprietor of the bar where Alex sometimes hangs out, to badger him into joining in a friendly poker game at the home of Win Vargas. Before Alex can even work up a good dislike of the blustery, wealth-flaunting Vargas, three armed men interrupt the poker game. While Alex, Jackie and the other players are held at gunpoint, their host is led off to open a safe and his treasured collection of artifacts is trashed or stolen. From that quick beginning, events move swiftly and strangely. Alex finds Vargas's suspicions centering on him; the police, led by old enemy Chief Roy Maven, think Jackie and the other players were in on the robbery. And Alex's ex-partner, PI Leon Prudell, turns out to have yet another take on who's behind the robbery. Hamilton keeps the action fast and furious and manages to keep the reader off balance almost as much as his hero. As usual, Alex takes more than his share of lumps as he rediscovers the importance of friendship, loyalty and courage. While Alex McKnight would probably hate the idea, mysteries this good may make him extremely popular. Agent, Jane Chelius.
