The Jack London series takes the real-life adventure writer and turns him into a fictional detective. The Jewel of the North (2001), Dead Man’s Coast (2002), and The Golden Gate Murders (2002) place London in mystery plots set against the early twentieth-century frontier and San Francisco settings he knew in real life.
Peter King draws on London’s reputation as an adventurer and his knowledge of rough-and-tumble settings to create historical mysteries with an authentic period feel.
