In the words of Lee Child on Gone to Dust, "I want more of Nils Shapiro." Emmy Award-winning author Matt Goldman happily obliges by bringing the Minneapolis private detective back for another thrilling, stand alone adventure in Broken Ice. Nils Shapiro has been hired to find missing Linnea Engstrom, a teenager from the small northern hockey town of Warroad, Minnesota. Most of Warroad is in Minneapolis for the state high school hockey tournament, and Linnea never returned from last night's game. Linnea's friend Haley Housch is also missing--and soon found dead. After Nils is shot through the arm with an arrow at the Haley Housch crime scene, only the quick work of medical examiner Char Northagen saves Nil's life. Nils should be in the hospital recovering from his near fatal injury, but he knows that the clock is ticking. Linnea could be anywhere, and someone doesn't want her found. Is Linnea a victim, or is she playing a dangerous game? As bodies start piling up, the clues lead Nils north to Warroad, a small, quiet town with many secrets to hide.

Private investigator Nils Shapiro is hired to investigate the brutal murder of Todd Rabinowitz, and soon it seems everyone connected to the prominent lawyer wants Nils to protect them from suspicion. The unfaithful widow. Her artist boyfriend. The lawyer's firm. A polarizing congressional candidate. A rudderless suburban police department. Even the FBI. As Nils personal life takes its own unexpected turn, he and his partners unravel a web of deceit that draws national attention. Someone doesn't want them to discover what dark secrets Todd was keeping, and they won't stop until they silence Nils as well. In The Shallows, New York Times bestselling author and Emmy Award-winning writer Matt Goldman delivers another thrilling page-turner with his signature pace, humor, and richly drawn characters.

"Sharp wit, complex characters, and masterful plotting makes Goldman a writer to watch. Irreverent and insightful, private detective Nils Shapiro is sure to become a fan favorite." --Harlan Coben, New York Times bestselling author A brutal crime. The ultimate cover-up.

Suburban divorcee Maggie Somerville was found murdered in her bedroom, her body covered with the dust from hundreds of emptied vacuum cleaner bags, all potential DNA evidence obscured by the calculating killer. Digging into Maggie's cell phone records, Nils finds that the most frequently called number belongs to a mysterious young woman whose true identity could shatter the Somerville family--but could she be guilty of murder? After the FBI demands that Nils drop the case, Nils and Ellegaard are forced to take their investigation underground, where the case grows as murky as the contents of the vacuum cleaner bags. Is this a strange case of domestic violence or something with far reaching, sinister implications?

Det är vinter i Minnesota: kallt, blåsigt och ohyggligt mycket snö. Privatdetektiven och före detta polismannen Nils Shapiro ägnar större delen av sin vakna tid åt att jobba, respektive försöka komma över sitt havererade äktenskap. En dag hör den före detta poliskollegan Anders Ellegaard av sig och ber om hjälp. En kvinna har hittats mördad i sitt hem och hennes kropp är täckt av innehållet från hundratals dammsugarpåsar, vilket effektivt omintetgör polisens möjligheter att säkra spår efter förövaren. Kanske är det här det perfekta mordet?Polisutredningen går trögt. Nils Shapiro gräver sig envetet allt djupare ner i fallet, med hjälp av lika mycket skarpsinne som cynism. Men när han börjar få fram information om offrets bakgrund dyker plötsligt FBI upp och kräver att han omedelbart avslutar sitt uppdrag. Shapiro och Ellegaard tvingas nu gå helt utanför alla officiella kanaler, vilket inte bara gör det hela svårare, utan också mycket farligare. Vad är det egentligen som har hänt och varför lägger sig FBI i utredningen? MATT GOLDMAN jobbade i många år som manusförfattare för tv, och har skrivit mycket för till exempel Ellen och Seinfeld. Kalla spår är hans debutroman och bjuder på en smart intrig där lager på lager skalas bort och ingenting är vad det till en början synes vara. Goldman är en mycket skicklig berättare och porträttet av Nils Shapiro tecknas med en underbart svart understatementhumor. "Goldmans berättarstil blir som en blandning av Mickey Spillane och Fargo. Det är mycket svart humor, nutidskänsla och intressanta miljöer. Huvudpersonen Nils Shapiro hoppas jag innerligt får chansen i fler böcker, detta var verkligen en positiv överraskning." helagotland.se "Klassisk pusseldeckare i mindre vanlig miljö, perfekt jullovsläsning." Expressen Söndag "Förutom en spännande och medryckande intrig, fint utmejslade personporträtt och en miljöbeskrivning så snygg så att man som läsare riktigt känner snön som gnisslar under fötterna, så finns här det där lilla extra i form av halsbrytande roliga liknelser och snärt i dialogen [...] Hårdkokt som Raymond Chandler, klurig som Linwood Barclay och med en penna lika kvick och vass som Harlan Coben - det är dags att lägga namnet Matt Goldman på minnet!" Alingsås Tidning "Det är en lättsam, kvick prosa och en spännande historia, där nästan alla personer har svensk-klingande namn." Västerbottens Folkblad

Privatdetektiv Nils Shapiro har fått ett nytt uppdrag: att hitta Linnea Engstrom, en tonårstjej som försvunnit från den lilla staden Warroad i Minnesota, där allt kretsar kring hockey. I Warroad har invånarna gått man ur huse och åkt in till Minneapolis för en stor hockeyturnering, men dagen därpå visar det sig att Linnea aldrig kom hem igen - och ytterligare en tonåring är försvunnen: Linneas kompis Haley Housch. När Haley hittas död tar sig Shapiro genast till brottsplatsen, men så fort han anländer är han en hårsmån från att själv bli dödad på ett extremt utstuderat sätt: någon skjuter på honom med pilbåge. Trots allvarliga skador lämnar Shapiro sjukhuset så fort han kan, och tillsammans med sin före detta poliskollega Anders Ellegaard, som han numera driver sin säkerhetsfirma med, ger han sig ut på en intensiv mördarjakt och ett alltmer desperat sökande efter den försvunna Linnea Engstrom. Tunn is är den andra boken i serien om privatdetektiv Nils Shapiro. MATT GOLDMAN jobbade i många år som manusförfattare för tv, och har jobbat med till exempel Ellen och Seinfeld. Han är en mycket skicklig berättare och tecknar porträttet av Nils Shapiro med en stor portion svart understatementhumor. Kalla spår (2020), den första boken om Nils Shapiro, var hans debutroman, och bjöd på en smart intrig där ingenting var vad det till en början syntes vara. "Tunn is är en välkonstruerad deckare av gammalt hederligt snitt, där den självironiske Nils Shapiro konkurrerar med nedlåtande poliser och har kärleksproblem med sina kvinnor. Matt Goldman skriver med imponerande tempo och så mycket gott humör att det blir väldigt bra underhållning."Lotta Olsson, DN"Med en stilistisk säkerhet och ekon från exempelvis Raymond Chandler ger Goldman detektivromanen en modern kostym som gör att man vill ha mer av den här varan. Hela paketet innehåller högkvalitativt skrivande: språk, miljöer, karaktärer, intrig."Henric Ahlgren, BTJ"Intelligent humor och smart intrig. [...] Läsarna kommer vilja se mer av Nils och hans kollegor." Publishers Weekly om Tunn is "Vass humor, sammansatta personporträtt och en mästerlig intrig håll koll på Goldman framöver. [...] Nils Shapiro kommer att bli en läsarfavorit." Harlan Coben om Kalla spår
