Synopsis
Sharon MacDonald has a problem. It’s not being under house arrest. It’s not the Iranian guy who just fell from the twenty-fifth floor of her apartment building. It’s not even the police surveillance that’s preventing her from getting to her marijuana grow rooms. Sharon’s problem is a stranger named Ray: He’s too good looking, and his business proposal sounds too good to be true.
Detective Gord Bergeron has problems, too. There’s his new, hard-to-read partner, Detective Armstrong; a missing ten-year-old girl; an unidentified torso dumped in an alley; and what looks like corruption deep within the police force. In a city where the drug, immigration, and sex industries are all inextricably intertwined, it’s only a matter of time until Sharon’s and Gord’s paths cross and all hell breaks loose in this pitch-perfect second installment of John McFetridge’s rollicking noir series."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
From the Back Cover
ADVANCE PRAISE FOR EVERBODY KNOWS THIS IS NOWHERE
"McFetridge has a veteran’s way with dialogue and prose, and the pages fly by like greased lightning. You’ll love every word, from the very first windshield splat all the way to the dynamite end. Everyone Knows this is awesome!"?Victor Gischler, author of Shotgun Opera
"Gritty and colorful, peppered with whip-crack dialogue, filled with a busload of shady characters and shifting landscapes, this is Toronto as Wild Wild North, where the First World lives cheek by jowl with the Third and immigrants, developers, crooks, cops, and filmmakers plot ferocious double crosses."--Denise Hamilton, author of the Edgar-nominated Eve Diamond series
"Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere is just one hell of a read, takes off like a bullet and never lets up, like a wondrous mix of Elmore Leonard and McBain but with a dazzling Canadian slant that is as fresh as it is darkly hilarious."?Ken Bruen, author of Edgar-nominated Priest
