What to expect
The fourth thrilling installment of the Wakeland detective series, exploring the depths of Vancouver’s criminal underworld.
The mayor’s brother is missing. A transit cop lies beaten and blinded, her service weapon stolen. A new series of graffiti tags are appearing, linked to an underground group calling themselves The Death of Kings. Class warfare has broken out on the streets of Vancouver, and PI Dave Wakeland finds himself on the front lines―but unsure which side he’s on.
Reeling from a bad breakup, and increasingly alienated from the city he calls home, Wakeland nevertheless agrees to look for the missing gun. The investigation takes him from flophouses to city hall, and from a clinic in the West Vancouver hills to a mega-mansion in the exclusive British Properties neighborhood―along the way, crossing every ethical line the PI has drawn for himself. Even then, Wakeland may not be able to pull it off …
Critics Review
-
“Wiebe is the absolute master of noir with heart. Wakeland had better not be planning to quit, because as far as I’m concerned, when you’re tired of Wakeland, you’re tired of life.”
Iona Whishaw, bestselling author of The Lane Winslow Mystery series
-
“Sam Wiebe is one of the most respected names in crime fiction today and with good reason. Sunset and Jericho…is a gritty, realistic urban noir that examines the problems so prevalent in cities around the world today. With pacing that doesn’t let up, and a shocker of an ending, readers won’t be able to put this one down.”
Robyn Harding, bestselling author of The Perfect Family
