What to expect
The Hunting Wind continues Steve Hamilton’s award-winning and New York Times bestselling Alex McKnight series.
Before he became a private investigator, before he served in the Detroit police, and long before he retreated to the wintry reaches of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, Alex McKnight played ball in the minor leagues. He doesn’t spend much time thinking about those days, at least not until a former teammate comes looking for him.
The man is here to ask a favor. He wants Alex to help him find the woman with whom he had a brief, passionate affair three decades ago. Who is Alex to deny his friend a chance to ward off a classic midlife chill by rekindling an old flame? But as the search deepens, McKnight begins to suspect that he hasn’t been told the full story. And there might just be a reason why this mysterious woman is so hard to find.
Critics Review
-
“[An] easygoing, smoothly written tale.”
Seattle Times
-
“Un-put-downable…We are in the glorious, shadowy realm of noir where nothing is what it seems…But in this exceptionally entertaining novel, McKnight is a decent man whose wits are a match for a whole world of vipers.”
Publishers Weekly (starred review)
-
“Alex is nothing if not quixotic, and so off he goes on the Maria-quest, during which he gets warned off, beaten up, shot at, and generally mistreated and manhandled while tilting at windmills.”
