From Publishers Weekly:
This smart, snappy mystery debut introduces Portland, Oreg., sculptor Adam McCleet, a former cop whose creations generally feature women and large sea creatures. McCleet sells his work at a gallery whose gorgeous, savvy owner, Alison Brooks, wears skimpy underwear which McCleet often gets to see. Here, the artist's pushy, viper-tongued sister badgers him into searching for her missing husband, Phil, an orthodontist who has disappeared during a convention, leaving his bed unslept in and his dental floss unused. Things look grim. While tracking Phil, (who finally turns up alive, but minus a kidney), McCleet also flushes a serial killer who preys on well-heeled tourists. Despite some hackneyed characters and a few too many jokes (nearly all of them good) that sometimes slow the pace, Hanson generates a high-energy tale that will leave readers eager for a sequel.

Modestly successful sculptor and ex-policeman Adam McCleet goes sleuthing when his overbearing sister pressures him into looking for her husband, who is missing from a dentists' convention in Seattle. McCleet bluffs his way around town, chases fancy hookers in a toothmobile, and even views the grim remains of the "Seattle Ripper's" latest victim. But after someone dumps his brother-in-law in Portland, minus one kidney, Adam vows revenge. Free-flowing prose, offbeat humor, an enticing protagonist, and an engaging love affair combine well in this auspicious and entertaining debut.
