Jack Dixon

When a teenager disappears from an elite boarding school, local police throw the seemingly innocuous case to their neighborhood PI. Enter Jack Dixon: college dropout, ex-cop, and ex-cook. What should be a simple case quickly turns sour, pushing Jack into the path of Nordic biker cultists and vicious drug dealers. But the houseboat-dwelling PI is determined to find the truth - and the missing kid - even though his persistence leads him into a thorny tangle of drugs and violence that could rip his sleepy waterfront life apart.

Jack accompanies the self-styled "U.S. Grant" - an old college buddy - and his regional wrestling promotion on their fall tour in hopes of sniffing out the mystery and escaping his troubled past...and to avoid any more harrowing run-ins with the deadly Aesir gang. Struggling with a budding romance, the specter of his college-era mistakes, and the undercurrents of a fanatic pro wrestling fandom, some of whom may just be willing to kill, Jack soon finds himself dragged into the limelight - and squarely into the crosshairs of his most dangerous enemies.
