A Nightmare in Pink

Travis McGee finds himself in the one place he would never choose to be: New York City, where no one can be trusted.

MacDonald only gets better as he lays bare more of his America. Find out why he is the inspiration behind a generation of crime writers. Perfect for fans of Lee Child, Michael Connelly and John Grisham.

'MacDonald had a huge influence on me . . . Reacher is like a fully detached version of Travis McGee' - LEE CHILD

'The great entertainer of our age, and a mesmerizing storyteller' - STEPHEN KING
'To diggers a thousand years from now, the works of John D. MacDonald would be a treasure on the order of the tomb of Tutankhamen.' - KURT VONNEGUT

Travis McGee isn't your typical knight in shining armour. He only works when his cash runs out, and his rule is simple: He'll help you find whatever was taken from you, as long as he can keep half.

Travis McGee's old army buddy needs a favour.

His sister's fiancé has just been murdered in what the authorities claim was a standard Manhattan mugging. But Nina knows better.

Her soon-to-be husband had been looking too closely at his firm's books, and he'd found that the numbers weren't adding up.

Travis is determined to get to the bottom of things, but just as he's closing in on the truth he finds himself taken captive.
Some people will go to any lengths to make sure their secrets don't get out . . .

Featuring an introduction by Lee Child
