A STOLEN SEASON

If only ex-Detroit-cop Alex McKnight had stayed in by the fire instead of going out with friends on a foggy night in July to rescue three stranded boaters. But Alex goes, and the string of events that follows almost undoes him. From Paradise, Michigan, where Alex is investigating a prescription drug scheme, to Toronto, where his ladylove is on an undercover sting operation, the action is nonstop. Jim Bond gives a multilayered performance of this seventh Alex McKnight novel. As characters wrestle with real problems in believable ways, Bond never strikes a false note. His Canadian and Upper Peninsula accents have just the right lilt, and his Ojibway accent is strong and convincing. S.J.H. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine [Published: DEC 06/ JAN 07]
