Description: Praise for Windward Passage "Jim Nisbet -- whose pen is mightier than a million swords -- does it again with Windward Passage. This is a book that should not be missed." -Michael Connelly "Jim Nisbet is a cult favorite in Europe and it''s easy to see why. In the tradition of Jim Thompson and Damon Runyon, Nisbet is too good to miss and Windward Passage is a masterpiece that raises the bar even for such a master storyteller." - San Francisco Chronicle "Sure, Nisbet breaks all the rules, but that''s really the whole point. His novels are the literary equivalent of road trips, and a good road trip follows no map." - Booklist "Nisbet pushes the boundaries of fiction with brave experimental forays...Fans of Nisbet''s previous work will find this a welcome addition to an already impressive collection of gritty and adventurous work." -- ForeWord Reviews "This is a gripping conspiracy thriller...Fast-paced throughout...Timely yet eerie in many ways, fans will enjoy this strange but exhilarating tale as political bias trumps over logic, fairness and common good in Jim Nisbet''s strong suspense." -Harriet Klausner, Midwest Book Review "In Windward Passage , his tenth book, [Nisbet] pulls out all the stops, combining his long-standing noir sensibilities with an off-the-wall post-modern disposition and cultural critique...With his ear to the ground, Nesbit updates the traditional noir narrative, combining it with a sea adventure story, conundrums, a dash of cyberpunk, and a sprinkling of literary concerns... So hat''s off not only to Nisbet, but to Overlook Press. Because this is Nisbet at his wildest and weirdest...an entertaining, insightful and highly recommended adventure." -- CrimeTime Blog (UK) "Jim Nisbet''s power of suggestion . . . seduces the imagination without churning the stomach."-Wichita Times-Record "Nisbet''s prose drives and sparkles as it takes the reader into a world without morality or ethics."-San Antonio Express-News Timely yet eerie in many ways, fans will enjoy this strange but exhilarating tale as political bias trumps over logic, fairness and common good in Jim Nisbet''s strong suspense." - The Mystery Gazette
