Westerfield's Chain (Nick Acropolis)

Westerfield's Chain was a finalist for the Shamus Award for Best First Private Eye Novel. "A pure delight for many reasons, not the least of which is the way Jack Clark celebrates and rings a few changes on the familiar private-eye script. There's a memorable moment [on] virtually every page."—Chicago Tribune "Clark knows his city: the geography and flavor of the neighborhoods are vividly presented, and interesting, often quirky characters are introduced along this fascinating ride."—Chicago Reader "Jack Clark's descriptions are beautifully haunting and his plotting is exceptional."—Romantic Times "A likeable protagonist and spirited, uncluttered prose."—Kirkus Review "It's a great read."-Publishers Weekly
