Fox Presents Door County Thriller

The Moonhawker by George Fox is a thriller about a Special Forces soldier-turned-educator, Atticus Gunner. After an anonymous philanthropic organization makes him an offer he cannot refuse, Gunner and his two young daughters embark on an adventure into the untamed waters of northern Lake Michigan on a 32-foot sloop named the Moonhawk.

Set on Washington Island in 1976, this riveting thriller is filled with unexpected twists and turns whereby one man is inadvertently propelled on an unforgettable journey filled with intrigue, romance, and murder.

Fox began the manuscript in 1975 when he served as administrator of the Washington Island School District. In 2009, he picked up the old manuscript and finished it this last summer.

The Moonhawker recently received the coveted Kirkus Blue Star Award. The Kirkus review stated, “Fox fuses tantalizing action, adventure and memorable characters with nearly three decades of real-life experience to deliver an addictive page-turner with blistering intensity.”
