A Scotiabank Giller Prize Readers’ Choice Winner

Shortlisted for the U.K. Debut Dagger Award

Cover of Midnight in Havana book depicting an empty Havana street at night.

In beautiful crumbling Old Havana, Canadian detective Mike Ellis hopes the sun and sand will save his troubled marriage. He doesn’t yet know that it’s dead in the water, much like the little Cuban boy last seen begging the couple for a few pesos.

For Inspector Ricardo Ramirez arresting Ellis for the boy’s murder isn’t the problem: he’s in a race against time. He has only seventy-two hours to secure an indictment and Celia Jones, an Ottawa lawyer, keeps challenging his evidence. But Ramirez has another ticking clock to deal with. He’s dying of an incurable illness that causes him to see ghosts, and the dead haunt his every step.
