Items related to Deal on Ice
Contractor-sleuth John Deal is the last of his kind--a builder who appreciates his craft. His friend Arch Dolan was the last of his kind, too, a Miami bookseller who sold books because he loved them. Now someone has killed him for it. And he's only the first body to fall. In quick succession the CEO of a huge bookstore chain and a local lawyer meet violent ends ...and Deal begins finding connections.
But it's not as easy for Deal as it used to be. His estranged wife, Janice, is still emotionally scarred from his last adventure. Janice was close to Arch, though, and she's as eager to find his killer as her husband. Working together, they discover that Arch's sister Sara, lately employed by a charismatic Christian revivalist, has disappeared. With the clues pointing north, Deal and Janice set off to find out more--before they're both chilled out for good.

Review:
Of all the good action writers stumbling around South Florida in the shadow of Elmore Leonard, Les Standiford shows the most signs of growth and longevity. His John Deal is a contractor by trade, which gives him solid roots in the community, and the crimes he investigates are always connected to him by more than the accident of somebody walking into his office. This time the link is Arch Dolan, Deal's friend and favorite bookseller, killed just as a monster mega-store is set to open across the street. Standiford's last outing, Deal to Die For, is available in paperback--as are Done Deal, Raw Deal and Spill.
