THE HUNTING WIND

Alex McKnight is a private eye who isn't. He does hold a PI license, and has a partner. But he'd just as soon be left alone, sipping Canadian beer at the Glasgow Inn, located in remote Paradise, Michigan. Then, out of the blue comes a friend from the past who needs help finding his long lost love. Good guy Alex agrees to help, and THE HUNTING WIND soon becomes a gale of deception, deceit, and murder. Reader Nick Sullivan adds so much to this entertaining yarn, including clear, crisp dialogue and conversational diction and timing. The only detracting feature to an otherwise wonderful presentation is Sullivan's attempt to give too many individual characters distinct vocal identity. The result is a too creepy villain and a too sexy female centerpiece. However, this is no fatal flaw. THE HUNTING WIND is a great listen. T.J.M.
