Holland March is a private eye with a defective nose and a broken arm. Jackson Healy is the tough guy who put him in a cast. Not the two most likely men to team up to hunt for a missing girl, or look into the suspicious death of a beautiful porn star, or go up against a conspiracy of the rich and powerful that stretches from Detroit to D.C. Hell, they’re not the most likely pair to team up to do anything. But there you go. And if they somehow survive this case, they might just find they like each other.
But let’s be honest. They probably won’t survive it.
“Ardai is a poet of the noir. His prose is slick like butter you want to roll around in during an orgy. His words spin and guide even the shadiest souls. Ardai made this story his own. In a world of lazy, thoughtless novelizations, The Nice Guys will stand out as one that truly cared.” - Lit Reactor
"Carl Hiaasen fans will enjoy the zany humor." - Publisher's Weekly
"If you have seen the movie before and want a different way to enjoy it, I would recommend picking up a copy. And if you haven't, the book works on its own, like one of those fun, pulp, crime paperbacks found at drug stores or airports." - Cinema Sentries
“Fun, energetic, and full of likable characters” - Atomic Moo
"The Nice Guys is a crime-comedy caper well worth a read." - VGBlogger
