Michael Stone
Shamus Award Nominated Writer
Michael Stone started his career as a newspaper reporter, working as a correspondent for The Dallas Morning News and winning awards for his investigative journalism, before becoming a private detective in Denver. He used that experience to powerful effect when he became a crime fiction novelist.
Stone’s blockbuster series of thrillers began with The Low End of Nowhere, which introduced bounty hunter Streeter, the tough-guy-with-a-tender-heart tracking down terrifying criminals on the streets of Denver. The smashing debut earned Stone praise from Robert B. Parker and other crime fiction legends…and snagged him a coveted Shamus Award nomination for best novel from the Private Eye Writers of America. The book was quickly followed by A Long Reach, Token of Remorse, and Totally Dead, each a uniquely-authentic and explosive mystery packed with the author’s real-life experience. Stone’s series of crime noir fiction is both darkly-funny and deeply-gritty…and rates as some of the most original and cutting edge work in the mystery genre.

Reviews For Michael Stone
Mr. Stone, a private investigator himself, works the hard-boiled genre conventions with the insouciance of an old pro. There's invention in the details and originality to the characters.
Stone has a winning way with characters who are, well, bumblers…a welcome shot of humor for the hardboiled set
Stone’s gritty handling takes the reader into a demimonde of lowlifes he may not have run into since the early Robert Mitchum movies. Stone is a swell read
