“Hamilton’s star continues to rise. Night Work shines in all the right places.”

Mystery News


Finalist for the 2008 CWA Gold Dagger Award

With Night Work, award-winning author of the acclaimed Alex McKnight series Steve Hamilton delivers an atmospheric stand-alone thriller.

Joe Trumbull is not a man who scares easily. But tonight he is scared to death.

It’s been two years since the murder of Joe’s fiancée, Laurel. Two years of grief and loneliness. On this hot summer night, he is finally going on a blind date, his first since Laurel’s death. He’s not looking for love, just testing the waters to see if it’s possible to live a normal life again. And after the first awkward minutes, Joe starts to think this date wasn’t such a bad idea after all. In fact, maybe it will turn out to be one of the best things that ever happened to him.

He couldn’t be more wrong. Because somehow, for reasons Joe doesn’t yet understand, this one evening will mark the beginning of a new nightmare—a nightmare that will lead him to realize that the past is never past. And the worst is yet to come.

    Sneaks up on you in a surprise way.

    This might strike some listeners as a book that starts a bit slow. But, stay with it as it picks up well. Hamilton writes in such a way as it is easy to feel like you there in the scene. Living above a gym in a single room, loving to listen to jazz, our main character, Joe Trumbull, is a juvenile probation officer who is in a long term moan for the loss of his fiancé. It’s easy to feel his pain as read by Seth Podowitz and to live with the memory of a fiancé that was murdered a couple of years earlier. If you’re looking for a page-turner audio book, this is it, even with a somewhat unpredictable ending. Complicated in spots, but worth the extra attention you might have to give. Enjoy.
