Murder, Movies and Magic.
Welcome to the Summer of 1979.

Step into the scorching summer of 1979 on Mackinac Island, Michigan, where the lines between reality and fantasy blur in a whirlwind of murder, movies, and magic.

Meet Jack McGuinn, a paperboy who thought he had life on the island all figured out—until a Hollywood production descended on Mackinac to film “Somewhere in Time,” starring the legendary Christopher Reeve and enchanting Jane Seymour. Jack’s neatly constructed life unravels like a newspaper caught in a windstorm.

Amidst the movie mania sweeping the island, Jack’s parents find themselves ensnared in the mysteries of their past, threatening to pull them apart. Desperate to save his parents’ marriage and protect the idyllic life he cherishes, Jack teams up with Blaze, a metalhead misfit with a penchant for the unconventional.

Together, they embark on a seemingly delusional quest: to solve a 20-year-old, unsolved murder and earn the reward money needed for Jack’s dream vacation—an escape his parents never had time for. As the stakes rise and their journey deepens, the boundaries between past and present blur, revealing hidden truths and long-buried secrets.

In “Somewhere in Crime,” the prequel to the Amazon bestseller and Michigan Notable Book, “The Dockporter,” you’ll experience a nostalgic, touching, and often hilarious coming-of-age adventure. Join Jack and Blaze as they navigate the tumultuous waters of the late ’70s, a world filled with Schwinn bikes, Izod shirts, and heated debates about KISS versus Black Sabbath.

Tanda Gmiter of MLive aptly describes it as “A big, sweet, laugh-out-loud scoop of late-’70s nostalgia.”

Are you ready to dive headfirst into an era where summer never ends? Don your checkered Vans, slip on that faded KISS T-shirt, and prepare to free-fall into a world where murder, movies, and magic converge. Order your copy of “Somewhere in Crime” now and embark on an unforgettable journey.
