About the Book

A captivating new thriller in the Wakeland detective series that explores the depths of Vancouver's criminal underworld. One of The Strand Magazine's 'Top 25 Mystery Novels of 2022' In one moment of public violence, everything changes for Dave Wakeland. When masked men and women storm an office building in Chinatown, leaving a trail of carnage, the Vancouver PI and his partner, Jeff Chen, find themselves caught up in a mystery that won't let them go. The police have a vested interest in finding the shooters, and so does the leader of the Exiles motorcycle gang. Both want Wakeland's help. The deeper he investigates, the more connections he uncovers: a reclusive millionaire with ties to organized crime, an international security company with a sinister reputation, and a high-ranking police officer who seems to have a personal connection to the case. When the shooters themselves start turning up dead, Wakeland realizes the only way to guarantee his own safety, and that of the people he loves, is by finding out who hired the shooters and why. What Wakeland uncovers are secrets no one wants known--a botched undercover operation, an ambitious gangster and a double-crossing killer who used the shooting to cover up another crime. With a setup like this, anything can go wrong, and does. Skill and luck are needed for Wakeland and Chen to emerge with the killers, the money and their own lives.

Review :
"Wakeland is to Vancouver what Scudder is to New York, and Hell and Gone cements Wiebe's place alongside Penny, Barclay, and Atwood." --Reed Farrel Coleman, New York Times bestselling author of Sleepless City and the Jesse Stone series "Hell and Gone and Hell Yes!" --Ian Rankin, author of the Inspector Rebus novels "Even Vancouver has a criminal underworld and this wonderful fast paced novel explores the contrast between the haves and have nots and has two protagonists matching wits against criminal--a highly recommended read." --The Strand Magazine "The Wakeland novels are an incredible combination of social commentary and just the best of the crime genre."--Charles Demers, author of Primary Obsessions "The best crime writer in Canada."--Nathan Ripley, author of Your Life is Mine "Sam Wiebe writes larger than life, and in Hell and Gone he takes his Pl Dave Wakeland into hell and back. A tense, taut page turner full of surprises in the dark, dangerous corners of Vancouver." --Ian Hamilton, author of the internationally bestselling Ava Lee series "...some of the most engrossing material I've read [this year]...the closest to what it would feel if you were in these situations yourself and no one else offers quite that." --Dead End Follies "For genre fans there's heists and biker gangs and corruption within any and all reputable institutions. What ranks Wiebe at the top of his game, though, is his awareness that all this gritty, exciting, page turning fare thrives under the belief that some lives matter more than others. For both Wiebe and Wakeland there's an almost quixotic sense that any good they do pales in comparison to all the established bad in the world, but goddamn if both their trying isn't compelling stuff." --Andrew Hood, The Bookshelf "Hell and Gone is Sam Wiebe's best writing to date and a great book." --Murder in Common Praise for The Wakeland Novels: "Wakeland takes on two difficult cases in Wiebe's superlative sequel to 2017's Invisible Dead . . . The parallel investigations modulate into one cleverly tuned commentary on a society that forces its citizens to choose between doing the wrong thing for the right reason and doing the right thing for the wrong reason . . . Wiebe convincingly brings Raymond Chandler into the 21st century." --Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) "Sam Wiebe is going to become a modern master of noir." --Strand Magazine "An exciting page-turner that all fans of noir will enjoy...Sam Wiebe introduces Vancouver to a US audience that might not be all that familiar with the city. A wonderful setting and likeable characters, lots of action and subtle humor will have readers calling for more stories featuring Dave Wakeland." --New York Journal of Books "What a pleasure it is to encounter a new voice, a new kind of edginess, a contemporary formulation of detective fiction that has the heft and distinction of the genre's classics.... It's easy to see why Sam Wiebe, still early in his career, has already received accolades and awards." --Washington Independent Review of Books "Witty, smart, detailed, and highly entertaining, Wiebe has a gift for place and character." --Steve Berry, New York Times bestselling author "...great narrative skill and some very cool dialogue." --Booklist "The enigmatic, intriguing tough guy at its center and gritty local color." --Publishers Weekly
