Praise for Dead of Winter "Bebop and Norteño, cool jazz and salsa, reading Dead of Winter was like listening to all the good music. This latest by Stephen Mack Jones is an astounding composition, an ode to a diverse city known for big engines and bigger hearts. Welcome back, August Snow!" --Rachel Howzell Hall, author of And Now She's Gone "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 "Like Walter Mosley and Joe Ide, Jones builds a raucous and endearing cast of characters from his inner-city setting, fusing neighborhood camaraderie with streetwise know-how and head-banging action. This is a fine thriller in the grand hard-boiled tradition, but it's also a sensitive, multifaceted portrait of race in America." -- Booklist , Starred Review "Gritty . . . Snow remains a distinctive lead capable of sustaining a long series." -- Publishers Weekly Praise for the August Snow Novels AUGUST SNOW: WINNER OF THE NERO AWARD WINNER OF THE HAMMETT PRIZE FINALIST FOR THE SHAMUS AWARD LIVES LAID AWAY: A NATIONAL BESTSELLER SHORTLISTED FOR THE CRIME WRITERS' ASSOCIATION STEEL DAGGER "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 "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." -- The Boston Globe "[A] gung-ho protagonist . . . cleaning up his beat-up neighborhood in Mexicantown." -- The New York Times Book Review, Praise for Dead of Winter "Like Walter Mosley and Joe Ide, Jones builds a raucous and endearing cast of characters from his inner-city setting, fusing neighborhood camaraderie with streetwise know-how and head-banging action. This is a fine thriller in the grand hard-boiled tradition, but it's also a sensitive, multifaceted portrait of race in America." -- Booklist , Starred Review Praise for the August Snow Novels AUGUST SNOW: WINNER OF THE NERO AWARD WINNER OF THE HAMMETT PRIZE FINALIST FOR THE SHAMUS AWARD LIVES LAID AWAY: A NATIONAL BESTSELLER SHORTLISTED FOR THE CRIME WRITERS' ASSOCIATION STEEL DAGGER "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 "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." -- The Boston Globe "[A] gung-ho protagonist . . . cleaning up his beat-up neighborhood in Mexicantown." -- The New York Times Book Review, A Booklist Top 10 Crime Novel of 2021 Praise for Dead of Winter "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 "Bebop and Norteño, cool jazz and salsa, reading Dead of Winter was like listening to all the good music.

Highly, highly recommended." --Joe Ide, author of the IQ Series "There are echoes of Spenser in August Snow. [Robert B.] Parker's Spenser, who was also portrayed on television in the Spenser: For Hire series, is an excellent cook and likes to drink. Spenser and Snow both balance their own moral codes with the violence they enact in order to live up to them." -- Michigan Radio's Morning Edition "Like Walter Mosley and Joe Ide, Jones builds a raucous and endearing cast of characters from his inner-city setting, fusing neighborhood camaraderie with streetwise know-how and head-banging action.

Snow remains a distinctive lead capable of sustaining a long series." -- Publishers Weekly "A true revelation . . . A crime novel that takes on big social issues with style and insight." --CrimeReads "Too much fun to miss." --Kingdom Books "Dead of Winter is not just explosions and fisticuffs . . . [O]ne should come to this story for the action and stay for the scenery and the characters." --Bookreporter.com " [ Dead of Winter ] will appeal to readers who like Detroit, Jack Reacher-style violence, and enticing references to local cuisine." --New York Journal of Books Praise for the August Snow Novels AUGUST SNOW: WINNER OF THE NERO AWARD WINNER OF THE HAMMETT PRIZE FINALIST FOR THE SHAMUS AWARD LIVES LAID AWAY: A NATIONAL BESTSELLER SHORTLISTED FOR THE CRIME WRITERS' ASSOCIATION STEEL DAGGER "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 "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." -- The Boston Globe "[A] gung-ho protagonist . . . cleaning up his beat-up neighborhood in Mexicantown." -- The New York Times Book Review, Praise for the August Snow Novels AUGUST SNOW: WINNER OF THE NERO AWARD WINNER OF THE HAMMETT PRIZE FINALIST FOR THE SHAMUS AWARD LIVES LAID AWAY: A NATIONAL BESTSELLER SHORTLISTED FOR THE CRIME WRITERS' ASSOCIATION STEEL DAGGER "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 "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." -- The Boston Globe "[A] gung-ho protagonist . . . cleaning up his beat-up neighborhood in Mexicantown." -- The New York Times Book Review, Praise for Dead of Winter "Bebop and Norteño, cool jazz and salsa, reading Dead of Winter was like listening to all the good music.
