Praise for Misery Bay: " Misery Bay showcases Hamilton's dark vision and his talents as a sturdy plotter. ... Hamilton's view of the harsh, bleak landscape of winter in Michigan's Upper Peninsula will have readers grabbing their coats and gloves as the frigid air seems to seep through the pages. Misery Bay is like a visit with an old friend with whom you can't wait to catch up."-- Sun-Sentinal "A triumphant return for McKnight. Misery Bay is as good as the previous ones in this critically acclaimed series. The plot is as suspenseful as they come, with lots of unpredictable twists and turns."-- The Associated Press "Superb.... Assured prose, a thrilling plot, and a surprising, satisfying conclusion make this a winner."-- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Hamilton's prose is straight and clean, as devoid of pretense as the author's name - Steve, just Steve, with no accompanying initials.

This is crime writing at its very best." -George Pelecanos "Hamilton gives us mysteries within mysteries as well as a hero who simply won't be beaten down." - The Miami Herald "Already one of our best writers." -Laura Lippman "Hamilton's prose moves us smoothly along and his characters are marvelously real." - Publishers Weekly "Hamilton's prose...remains an unself-consciously terse pleasure." - Entertainment Weekly "Hamilton... paints a rich and vivid portrait of a world where the chill in the air is often matched by that of the soul." - The Providence Journal "Hamilton never misses a beat." - Rocky Mountain News "I really like his main character, Alex McKnight, and I'm ready to re-visit Paradise, Michigan."--James Patterson on North of Nowhere, I'm often asked to recommend a detective series readers might have missed.

Synopsis
The New York Times Bestseller One of The Boston Globe 's Best Mysteries of 2011 ALEX MCKNIGHT IS BACK in the long-awaited return of one of crime fiction's most critically acclaimed series. On a frozen January night, a young man loops one end of a long rope over the branch of a tree. The other end he ties around his neck. A snowmobiler will find him thirty-six hours later, his lifeless eyes staring out at the endless cold water of Lake Superior. It happens in a lonely corner of the Upper Peninsula, in a place they call Misery Bay. Alex McKnight does not know this young man, and he won't even hear about the suicide until another cold night, two months later and 250 miles away, when the door to the Glasgow Inn opens and the last person Alex would ever expect to see comes walking in to ask for his help. What seems like a simple quest to find a few answers will turn into a nightmare of sudden violence and bloody revenge, and a race against time to catch a ruthless killer. McKnight knows all about evil, of course, having faced down a madman who killed his partner and left a bullet next to his heart. Mobsters, drug dealers, hit men--he's seen them all, and they've taken away almost everything he's ever loved. But none of them could have ever prepared him for the darkness he's aboutto face., The "New York Times "BestsellerOne of "The Boston Globe"'s Best Mysteries of 2011 ALEX MCKNIGHT IS BACK in the long-awaited return of one of crime fiction's most critically acclaimed series.On a frozen January night, a young man loops one end of a long rope over the branch of a tree.
