2012 Shamus Award for Best First PI Novel (nominee)
World War II vet and low budget PI Frankie McKeller is in over his head as he's plunged into his first ever murder case. Struggling against his own demons, crooked land deals and family secrets block the way in the fight to protect his best friend and find the killer.
Southern tradition meets old school mystery in this twisting tale as rival families attempt to alter the course of what will become one of America's top vacation destinations.
Riveting work of thriller and mystery, ... very much recommended.

Nooe's touch is deft and sympathetic as he invites us into McKeller's brain for a wild, occasionally brutal ride. - schuyler kaufman, CML Magazine
