Reviews
Praise for the August Snow novels "Has echoes of Raymond Chandler's banter and bursts of Dashiell Hammett's violence, with a tip of the porkpie hat to Walter Mosley." -- The Wall Street Journal "Four years ago, Stephen Mack Jones introduced August Snow, the caustic, mordantly funny hero of his private detective series, at a time when the subgenre appeared to be on the ropes. What a difference an interval marked by civil unrest, an ongoing pandemic and growing income inequality makes: P.I. fiction has never seemed more relevant, and Snow's third outing, Dead of Winter , stands out among the crowded pack." --Sarah Weinman, The New York Times Book Review "A P.I. story with an eye toward social issues and a firm grasp on the tropes of the genre, making it fresh and familiar at the same time." --S.A. Cosby, The Washington Post "Man, if you haven't read Stephen Mack Jones' Detroit crime novels about an ex-cop named August Snow, you ought to." --Mike Lupica, The New York Daily News " August Snow is one of my favorite books that I've read recently, and I'm not just saying that . . . The plot just takes off . . . This book is so good, I actually put it down, and I briefly entertained the notion of moving back to Detroit." --Nancy Pearl on NPR's Morning Edition "Stephen Mack Jones's rock-solid debut, August Snow , is powered by the outgoing personality of the title hero and his deep affections for his hometown of Detroit. This author proves himself a natural entertainer." -- Chicago Tribune "Jones, a Detroit-area poet and playwright brings the city, its environs, and its eateries to vital life in a mystery coiled around the contemporary crime du jour of cyber-finance meddling. His is that rare tale that, despite its thriller-level violence, maintains a fiercely warm heart at its core--and ends far too quickly." --The Boston Globe "The arrival of a new August Snow is a true gift. Clever, witty, and packed with danger and fun, Deus X is a brilliant thriller. His latest proves why Stephen Mack Jones has fast become one of our best living detective writers." --Ace Atkins, New York Times bestselling author of the Robert B. Parker Spenser novels and The Heathens "All of us begin in grace and great promise and, staring at the door left open behind, wonder where they've gone. Stephen Mack Jones knows this, as does his narrator August Snow, as does their battered city, Detroit. Jean Cocteau believed the world is a misunderstanding. We read searching for stories that help us untangle some of that misunderstanding; August Snow is one." --James Sallis, author of Drive "August Snow is a terrific character; rough and tumble, undaunted and implacably tenacious, his wit so sharp it'll make you bleed. In Stephen Mack Jones's new book, Dead of Winter , Snow protects his neighborhood from rapacious one percenters, Mack Jones skillfully weaving relevance into a blue streak, bone-breaking story. Highly, highly recommended." --Joe Ide, author of the IQ Series "Mack Jones's prose is razor sharp and bleeds compassion. Set in Detroit, this noir novel has energy and wit to spare. A stellar debut." --Milwaukee Journal Sentinel "[A] polished, gripping debut. Poet Stephen Mack Jones' novel bristles with energy, compassion, humor and a page-turning plot." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune, Praise for the August Snow novels "Has echoes of Raymond Chandler's banter and bursts of Dashiell Hammett's violence, with a tip of the porkpie hat to Walter Mosley." -- The Wall Street Journal "A P.I. story with an eye toward social issues and a firm grasp on the tropes of the genre, making it fresh and familiar at the same time." --S.A.

His latest proves why Stephen Mack Jones has fast become one of our best living detective writers." --Ace Atkins, New York Times bestselling author of the Robert B. Parker Spenser novels and The Heathens "Stephen Mack Jones''s Deus X is a finely crafted mystery; a slow burn that crackles with suspense and intrigue, as ex-Detroit cop turned PI, August Snow, unravels depraved secrets desperate to stay hidden and learns the lengths some will go to punish those who profess to be holy. With Deus X , Stephen Mack Jones further solidifies himself as an author at the top of his game and the August Snow series is worthy of all the praise." --Aaron Philip Clark, author of Under Color of Law and Blue Like Me Praise for the August Snow novels "Has echoes of Raymond Chandler''s banter and bursts of Dashiell Hammett''s violence, with a tip of the porkpie hat to Walter Mosley." -- The Wall Street Journal "Four years ago, Stephen Mack Jones introduced August Snow, the caustic, mordantly funny hero of his private detective series, at a time when the subgenre appeared to be on the ropes.
