In this episode of "Coffee Break" Rod Reynolds joins me to talk about the return of Detective Casey Wray in his thrilling new novel "Shatter Creek".

Shatter Creek plunges readers into the chaos of a brazen triple homicide that shatters the relative calm of a Long Island town. When two victims are gunned down in broad daylight, police scramble to determine if they're facing a mass shooting. The discovery of a third body initially simplifies the case, pointing to a domestic dispute with an obvious suspect, but Casey's instincts tell her something's off.

Whether you're continuing the journey from "Black Reed Bay" or discovering Casey Wray for the first time, this novel stands as compelling evidence of why Reynolds continues to be one of crime fiction's most refreshing voices.

Shatter Creek

Hampstead County Police Department is embroiled in scandal after corruption at the top of the force was exposed. Cleared of involvement and returned to active duty, Detective Sergeant Casey Wray nonetheless finds herself at a crossroads when it becomes clear not everyone believes she’s innocent.

CORRUPTION

Partnered with rookie Billy Drocker, Casey works a shocking daytime double-homicide in downtown Rockport with the two victims seemingly unknown to one another. And when a third victim is gunned down on her doorstep shortly after, it appears an abusive ex-boyfriend holds the key to the killings.

MURDER

With powerful figures demanding answers, Casey and Billy search for the suspect, fearing he’s on a murderous rampage. But when a key witness goes missing, and new evidence just won’t fit, the case begins to unravel.

DANGER

With her career in jeopardy, Casey makes a shattering discovery that threatens to expose the true darkness at the heart of the murders… with a killer still on the loose…
