Dead or a Lie

Beschreibung

Private Investigator Henry Walsh thought trouble was done knocking. But when it arrives on his doorstep, he can't ignore the call to chaos... Eager to savor his newfound sense of home, Henry finds solace elusive in the same childhood haven he envisioned. Struggling to keep Walsh Investigations afloat, he yearns for a game-changing client. However, fate deals a different hand when an unwelcome specter from his past, Brock Mason, resurfaces, seeking Henry's aid. Reluctant to reopen old wounds, Henry turns Brock away, only to reconsider when his old friend vanishes without a trace. The catch? The truth lies in the enigmatic streets of Miami. Against the stern warnings of his partner and fiancée, Alex Jepson, Henry dives into the Magic City's intricate web, where danger flows through the veins of the streets like a heartbeat. As lies and deception weave a treacherous narrative, Henry grapples with regret and discovers the hard way that Alex's instincts are seldom wrong. In this riveting tale of tangled loyalties, Henry Walsh faces a city that holds secrets as tightly as its embrace, and the choice to uncover the truth may prove to be his most perilous yet.

Gregory has written over twenty-three books, and is the author of four mystery and crime fiction series, including the Henry Walsh Private Investigator series, the US Marshal Charlie Harlow series, the Joe Sheldon crime series, and the new Jake Horn mysteries. His standalone crime novels include Drag the Man Down, Half Cocked, Danny Womack's .38, Biscayne Boogie, and a number of published short stories.He won his first award as a writer at ten years old, after sending a story to the Providence Journal about his pet husky being shot by a local farmer. The writing most likely wasn't very good, but the fact a young boy's dog was shot (true story!) tugged at the editor's heart strings just enough.His dog, luckily, survived.But that wasn't a paid gig, so years later he ended up in advertising. He eventually became a copywriter, specializing in direct mail and writing fundraising letters to help raise money for animals and children.The first book he wrote was nonfiction, but he quickly realized he wasn't smart enough to be giving anyone advice. He finally decided making up lies for a living would be much more fun.Somehow, he became an author.Raised in Providence, Rhode Island, Gregory lives with his wife, kids, and his dog, Jake, in North Carolina.
