Praise
“Harrison’s riveting fifth adventure for Montana PI Jules Clement (after 2000’s Blue Deer Thaw) is worth the wait . . . The episodic structure works wonders, with each vignette highlighting Jules’s damage as well as his brilliance.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
“What’s riveting is the ethical conflict Jules unearths: protecting (or surviving) the people you love versus defending justice . . . Sharp, bordering-on-absurdist humor.” —Kirkus Reviews
“The River View is a singularly refreshing detective story. With humor and flair, Harrison takes us back to the wildest small town in the real-deal west. These novels keep getting better.” —Ivy Pochoda, author of Sing Her Down
“The River View is a resonant crime novel that evokes both the vastness of the west and the narrowness of the human heart. These are real people, in all their gritty splendor, and Jules Clement is the hero we all need right now: Smart, funny, and defined by a world view that’s a little skewed. But more than that? It’s just nice to be back in Harrison’s town of Blue Deer, with all the grotesques in place.” —Tod Goldberg, author of Gangsters Don’t Die
“Jamie Harrison’s Blue Deer ain’t the Montana of Gary Cooper or Joel McCrea movies. It’s populated by well-to-do transplants who zoom over the mountains and pastures in trendy vehicles and indulge in nefarious swindles despite the heavenly natural surroundings. The River View is an ornery coyote of a novel.” —Barry Gifford, author of Ghost Years and Sailor & Lula: The Complete Novels
“The River View and all the Jules Clement novels of Jamie Harrison are a welcome antidote to those sprawling, prime-time renditions of the New West. The heroes and villains of small-town Montana are way more intriguing—the crime is grubbier, the passion is bloodier, the revenge is sloppier—but the mountain views are just as spectacular. And Jules is beyond cool.” ––Carl Hiaasen
