Paperback. Etat : Very Good. What people are saying about this book: Finally there is a new author who will challenge the likes of Michael Connelly and David Baldacci. In this latest mystery, Sugar Island (in Michigan's beautiful Upper Peninsula) is used as a fitting backdrop to the wild action. It is a fast-paced thriller that you won't want to put down until the final page. -Island Books Murder on Sugar Island is a fast paced mystery full of twists and turns. If you like James Patterson, you'll enjoy Michael Carrier's second novel in the Getting to Know Jack series. This riveting thriller will keep you turning pages all the way to the shocking end. -Cascade Writer's Group A good read. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and kept coming back to it whenever I had the free time. The characters were really good. Connelly and Baldacci should approve-by Dave on August 10, 2013 If you like James Patterson and Michael Connelly, you'll love Michael Carrier. Carrier has proven that he can hang with the best of them (seriously- we're talking Patterson and Connelly) with his newest book. It has all of the great, edge-of-your-seat action and suspense that you'd expect in a good thriller, and it kept me guessing to the very end. Fantastic read with an awesome detective duo-I couldn't put it down Can't wait to read the next one -by Katie on August 18, 2013 They thought their task was an easy one-take a week off, drive north through Michigan's Lower and Upper Peninsulas, perhaps enjoy some Mackinaw fudge on the way, claim a fabulous Sugar Island inheritance, and then go back home. However, nothing ever comes easy for retired Chicago Homicide Detective Jack Handler, and his daughter Kate, a well-respected New York City homicide detective. This latest adventure began when an attorney visited Kate at her Manhattan precinct. He informed her that she had been named in her uncle's will to inherit a successful resort less than ten miles from the Canadian border. Not wanting to make the trip by herself, she invited her father to accompany her, and he agreed. What she failed to tell him at first was that her uncle, whom she had not seen for nearly thirty years, had been killed-and that his murder had not been solved. During the course of their visit, they found themselves pursued by agents of the Department of Homeland Security, the FBI, Canadian Border Patrol, and by local law enforcement. By the time they were ready to return, six more people were killed, a thirteen year-old red haired freckle face boy had become an integral part of their lives, and a twenty-year old crime got solved.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. In this, the first book in the Jack's Justice series, retired Chicago Homicide Detective Jack Handler leads the charge to rescue Angel, a teenage friend of the family. She had been kidnapped by a psychopathic serial killer named William Holmes-Cumberbatch. Jack is joined in the hunt by his daughter Kate (a New York City homicide detective), his two teenage foster boys (Red and Robby), Angel's mother, and Buddy (the boys' golden retriever). During the course of his search Jack uncovers the kidnappers' fiendish secret--a homemade, but very effective, WMD (weapon of mass destruction). These are some of the comments made regarding previous Jack Handler books: Top Shelf Murder Mystery--Riveting. Being a Murder-Mystery JUNKIE this book is definitely a keeper . can't put it down . read it again type of book . and it is very precise to the lifestyles in Upper Michigan. Very well researched. I am a resident of this area. His attention to detail is great. I have to rate this book in the same class or better than authors Michael Connelly, James Patterson, and Steve Hamilton. -- Shelldrakeshores Being a Michigan native, I was immediately drawn to this book. Michael Carrier is right in step with his contemporaries James Patterson and David Baldacci. I am anxious to read more of his work. I highly recommend this one -- J. Henningsen A fast and interesting read. Michael ends each chapter with a hook that makes you want to keep reading. The relationship between father and daughter is compelling. Good book for those who like a quick moving detective story where the characters often break the rules for the greater good I'm looking forward to reading the author's next book. -- Flower Lady Move over, Patterson, I now have a new favorite author, Jack and his daughter make a great tag team, great intrigue, and diversions. I have a cabin on Sugar Island and enjoyed the references to the locations. I met the author at Joey's (the real live Joey) coffee shop up on the hill, great writer, good stuff. I don't usually finish a book in the course of a week, but read this one in two sittings so it definitely had my attention. I am looking forward to the next installment. Bravo. -- Northland Press.…
