Dead Money: A Mack Dolan Mystery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798258211132)

A body in Room 418. No ID. No phone. No wallet. Just a tattoo that Detective Mack Dolan recognizes from a case fifteen years ago in Los Angeles he was never supposed to know about.

Dead Money is the first book in The Reno Files, a hard-boiled mystery series set in the gritty underbelly of Reno, Nevada, the city Las Vegas forgot, where second chances go to die.

Mack Dolan left the LAPD under a cloud. Now he works Homicide in Reno, where the cases are quieter and the ghosts are supposed to stay buried. But the dead man in the Sagebrush Casino Hotel isn't just a John Doe; he's a thread that runs thirty years back to a case that destroyed Mack's career, a partner he lost, and a name he has never said out loud in this city.

With his partner Detective Priya Nair running the evidence and the clock running down, Mack works the case the only way he knows slowly, carefully, and alone with the parts that matter most.

Perfect for fans of slow-burn police procedurals, where the detective listens longer than most people expect, and the city does most of the work.

Dead Money is a standalone mystery, no cliffhanger, no prior knowledge required.
