Description:Three Nick Nowak
Mysteries takes place in Chicago during the early 1980s. Haunted by his
abrupt departure from the Chicago Police Department and the end of his
relationship with librarian Daniel Laverty, Nick Nowak is a beat
cop-turned-dogged private investigator. In this first book of the
series, Nick works through three cases: a seemingly simple missing
persons search, an arson investigation, and a suicide that turns out to
be anything but. While working the cases, Nick moves through a series of
casual relationships until he meets homicide detective Bert Harker and
begins a tentative relationship.
