Hard Noir Holiday

Hard Noir Holiday: A Doc Holiday Private Investigator Mystery (Book 4)

Welcome to rattlesnake country.
Where a certain desert rat type is far deadlier
than a diamondback.

When L.A. Private Investigator Edgar "Doc" Holiday arrives at the home of an old friend in Tucson, Arizona, instinct tells him something is wrong: the car isn't in the driveway, fresh blood is dripping from a handprint on the doorjamb and no one appears to be in, not even the family dog.

But soon Doc makes a discovery far from the happy reunion he'd imagined, when he finds his friend's limp and lifeless body in the bathtub. Devastated, he vows to hunt down those responsible for her merciless killing as more horrifying murders follow in her wake.

And then an unsolved investigation begins to resurface that takes him and his associates to the other side of the US/Mexico border and a cartel stronghold.

Can Doc learn the truth behind their twisted connection in his biggest and most disturbing case yet?

Hard Noir is the fourth book in the heart-pounding Doc Holiday mystery series by the inimitable Kirk Alex. Perfect for crime thriller readers and fans of Jo Nesbo, Lee Child, Tana French, Sean Chercover and Derek Raymond.
