Steve Hamilton: Misery Bay (UK 2012) From the Publisher: In the dead of winter a young man is found hanging from a tree on a remote shore of Lake Superior known as Misery Bay. There's no evidence of foul play. Nothing to suggest it's anything other than a tragic teenage suicide. Devastated and unbelieving, the boy's father just has one question: why? Finding the answer is not a job ex-cop Alex McKnight relishes, but loss is something he understands only too well. When he starts to question the local cops about the suicide, Alex's instincts instantly tell him something is very, very wrong. And that he's unwittingly opening a door into a nightmare world of madness, murder and twisted revenge... Steve Hamilton: Misery Bay. It's a beautiful place to die. Orion Books, ISBN: 9781409111979 (January, 2012), 276 p., £7.99.

Steve Hamilton: Misery Bay (USA 2011) From the Publisher: 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 about to face.
