A Hard Death by Jonathan Hayes

Edward Jenner has been a victim of political fallout and is now banished to Douglas County in Florida, working as a medical examiner.  His problems in New York came from the Inquisitor serial killings and he's glad to leave them behind: however, his acquaintance with death is not over...


HarperCollins sent me an ARC of this book for review (thank you).  It's being published this month as a hardcover book and is also an ebook.  Check with your local bookstore to get a copy.


Jenner is very good at what he does and he's a smart man.  But he's not willing to close his eyes to what he sees when the man who hired him and his wife are submerged in a sunken car.  Martie had knife wounds and his wife drowned in the trunk.  This was no accident.


The plot weaves in and about itself, and is not only about murder and greed, but about dysfunctional families and people with no conscience.  The pace is fast, the action hot, and the corruption so deep you will wonder how this author is going to end the story.  You'll also be surprised at the ending.


This is a very good read for those who like suspense, mystery,and action all in one book.  There's even a touch of romance.  Why not get a copy and check it out yourself?


If you'd like to win my ARC, just comment here on my blog and then email me at info @ bookfaerie.com (take the spaces out) with your name AND address and tell me why you want to read the book.  I'll do the drawing in about a week.
