Eye on You - Dust in the Wind

Joe Hamilton returns with a blistering thriller featuring private detective Gabriel Ross. In his #1 book, Right Place, Wrong Time Hamilton introduced readers to the Eye on You Detective Agency. Fast forwarding through nine more novels, we learn about the detective’s most baffling case yet.

Set in the Deep South in 1986, Dust in the Wind opens with Gabriel Ross meeting with a young man claiming his girlfriend of three weeks had disappeared. As proof, he hands Gabriel a Dear John letter.

“It had all the components – the difficulty of the decision – ‘the it’s not you, it’s me’ shit and the business about how he would make some other girl happy one day. I was not in the business of helping stalkers find their ex-girlfriends.”

Reluctantly Gabriel decides to spend a couple of days to help the kid. As Gabriel digs deeper into the case, he learns that all is not as it seems.
