Riding a wave of critical acclaim for his debut novel, Killer Swell (a Los Angeles Times and Denver Post bestseller), Jeff Shelby continues
 to dazzle with Wicked Break, his second book featuring P.I. and surfer Noah Braddock. When Peter Pluto shows up at P.I. Noah Braddockas apartment
 asking him to look for his missing younger brother, Linc, Noah is reluctant to take the case. After all, the last time he got involved in a
 disappearance case, his best friend, Carter, was shot and two other people died. But Peter describes Linc as a serious college student, so 
Noah reluctantly agrees. As the investigation unfolds, Noah realizes thereas a lot more to Linc than academiaaunless your average undergrad 
also happens to have skinheads beating down his door and a cache of semiautomatic guns stored in his apartment. Aided by Carter, Noah discovers 
that Linc stole some money from the white supremacist group National Nation, an offshoot of the Aryan Nation. The skinheads will stop at nothing
 to find Lincaand when Noah wakes up at the bottom of a canyon, beaten and bruised, with Peter Plutoas corpse lying next to him, he realizes 
heas next on their list. BACKCOVER: Praise for Killer Swell:
aWhile the mystery contains surprising twists and turns, the real joy in this book is the characters. Like Harlan Coben did so well in his Myron
 Bolitar series, putting together two friends whose sarcastic banter is a hoot to follow, Shelby has done the same here.a
aTHE DENVER POST
aShelby writes like a pro, with realistic characters, terrific plotting, and a setting that makes you want to jump into your jams and wax up your board.a
aTHE KANSAS CITY STAR
aA heck of adetective whose surfer appearance belies a thoughtful, tough, hardworking guy who knows his way around an investigation. . . . 
Shelby has written a serious detective story with a generous helping of humor that comes from the characters, not Shelby. And that makes
 everything feel just right, like a day at the beach.a
aDETROIT FREE PRESS
aSnappy dialogue and descriptions. . . . Skillful use of underutilized San Diego locations.a
