Arctic Nation by Juan Díaz Canales

A hard‑boiled private detective in a stylized, anthropomorphic 1950s America is pulled into a tense, racially charged investigation after a series of brutal attacks on minorities; as he digs deeper he uncovers an organized white‑supremacist movement, widespread complicity and corruption, and a trail of violence that forces him to confront moral compromises, the limits of the law, and the darker strains running through society, all told with a cinematic noir atmosphere and sharp social critique.
