Out of the Blue

An ex-cop follows a trail from Mississippi to Mexico, because despite losing his badge he has not lost his thirst for justice.

Former cop Dan Stock, who left Atlanta Police Department under a cloud of suspicion, has moved to the small Mississippi town of Forrest Springs, where he’s inherited a decrepit mansion. There he gets involved with Cherry Winter, a controversial attorney embroiled in a high-profile case. She’s defending a woman accused of murdering her husband, who was a charismatic pastor.

Or so some say…

When both Cherry and her client are murdered, Stock must uncover the truth behind the killings and in doing so will come face to face with the deranged and the corrupt. Stock’s private war will span from Mississippi to Arizona, and down into the seediest parts of northern Mexico.

But all roads lead back to Atlanta and the mystery surrounding his unexpected retirement…

Perfect for fans of Michael Connelly and Mark Greaney, Out of the Blue is a taut crime thriller about one man’s fight for justice.

“M. M. Harrold, himself a law enforcement veteran, has given readers the intriguing, tough-as-nails gift of ex-Atlanta cop Dan Stock.Brilliant, propulsive, and not to be missed.” 
Stephen Mack Jones, author of the August Snow series.
