Hard Line

Beschreibung

Hard Line, the final book in master crime writer Gerry Boyle's long-running and award-winning Jack McMorrow series, concludes the two-book story arc he started in Robbed Blind with action ripped from current events as well as visits from old characters. McMorrow finds himself balancing a personal vendetta against the dangerous man who has abused a family friend with a lethal biker gang hunting for him and his crew. Not to mention fielding calls from reporters and dealing with growing suspicions about his daughter's new teacher. In McMorrow's last adventure, he must use his decades of talent in a stand-off between the forces of violent chaos and law and order-all set amidst the quiet pines, rough towns, and gray skies of rural Maine. As he faces down the end of everything he has held sacred-can Jack keep it all together without becoming the very thing he hates? If he even survives.

Autor

Gerry Boyle began his writing career in newspapers, an industry he calls the "best training ground ever." After graduating from Colby College, Gerry knocked around, working as a roofer, a postman, and then as a manuscript reader in New York. However, Boyle quickly realized he preferred his adopted northern state to the bustle of Manhattan. His first reporting job was in the paper mill town of Rumford, Maine, before he moved on to the (Waterville) Morning Sentinel, where editors learned quickly that he worked best when left to his own devices. And Boyle learned that the line between upstanding citizen and outlaw is a fine one, indeed. His experiences as a reporter inspired his first novel, Deadline in 1993. He continues to write gritty, authentic mysteries featuring his signature character, Jack McMorrow.
