Jim Harrison recommends

Fire Point (2004)
John Smolens
"Fire Point put my teeth on edge from the first page and kept them there until I finished. Smolens is a fine writer with a profound knowledge of human behaviour gone awry."

Octopus Alibi (2003)
(Alex Rutledge, book 4)
Tom Corcoran
"I made at least twenty fishing trips to Key West beginning in the late sixties until the early nineties when this hyper-energetic little city plumb wore me out. Naturally I explored fully the soft underbelly of the town, but then gradually realized Key West was all underbelly. Tom Corcoran's 'Octopus Alibi' is a true marvel of a mystery, a deeply engrossing guidebook to the mango opera that is life in Key West."

The Contract Surgeon (1999)
Dan O'Brien
"There is an aura that ghosts of the Sioux made him write this book, [which] should bring O'Brien to the wide audience he deserves."
