Description
HAWKINS
In the winter of 1931, a deep cover federal agent hunting the Mafia and the Klan takes on a case that changes his life forever. This is HAWKINS, a raw, no-holds-barred thriller and a searing meditation on justice.


Praise for Mike Tucker
“A brilliant Depression-era thriller that could not be more real or compelling, HAWKINS is a quick, riveting read. As a native of the American Southwest and retired FBI special agent who spent most of my career on the East Coast, I was drawn to HAWKINS mainly out of curiosity. From the first sentence, it became vividly clear that Mike Tucker's down-to-earth and hard-hitting style brought back to life the memories of vice, corruption and prejudices prevalent during my youth in the 1930's. The characters in HAWKINS are authentic and unforgettable and presented with conviction, passion and attention to detail that fully secures the reader's focus. There is so much injustice in the world and the damn truth is, there always has been. But as Mike Tucker says in HAWKINS, "You cannot win the fight alone, but if you stand for justice, you will never fight alone." And that is the heart and soul of this great book, HAWKINS."

"NOMAD is a classic journey story and a magnificent epic -- point-blank, gripping and poignant, a story that we would not know except for Mike Tucker's journey among the farmers and fishermen in North China. The Chinese revolutionaries, spies and guerrilla fighters have their say and could not be more real, convincing and authentic. A stunning, riveting novel, NOMAD -- I could not put it down. Bravo, Mike Tucker.”
Mark Chambers, hunting guide, Northern New Mexico


“SPARTACUS DID THE RIGHT THING is one of the novels that has won Mike Tucker's prose just comparison to Ernest Hemingway. Tucker's short, energetic sentences are stripped down and laconic, lending a rhythm and directness to the narrative that immediately recalls Hemingway.”
Miles Amoore, the African Correspondent THE SUNDAY TIMES www.amazon.co.uk


“If Hemingway were alive, he would be buying drinks for Mike Tucker all night long, for Tucker's vivid, moving first-hand account of a 250 kilometer deep reconnaissance behind Burmese Army lines, THE LONG PATROL, pivots on those quintessentially Hemingwayesque themes of armed men fighting to survive against overwhelming odds, and simply battling against the elements. Outstanding.”
Jim Algie, Editor, author and journalist. Untamed Travel.
