Book Description: Judge Joe Crater s disappearance in 1930 spawned countless conspiracy theories and captured the imagination of a nation caught in the grip of The Depression. Fifteen years later, Fintan Dunne, the detective encountered in Quinn s novel Hour of the Cat, recently retired and bored, answers a summons to New York where he is asked to solve the old case for a newspaper magnate interested in making a profit. Dunne confronts haphazard investigating, aggrieved participants and a grieving spouse as he travels from New York to Los Angeles and Havana, untangling decades-old clues in an attempt to solve the mystery still baffling America. Peter Quinn once again has written a compelling blend of history and fiction that is simply unputdownable. : Review: 'This is noir fiction at its finest.' --William Kennedy: 'The Man Who Never Returned is a dazzling story by a fine writer. Fintan Dunne is a memorable hero you want to meet again and again.' --James Patterson: 'An utterly compelling story with a charismatic, flawed protagonist in Fintan Dunne.
