Liquid Smoke

Jeff Shelby

Tyrus Books,  August 2011

Private eye Noah Braddock has finally found peace in his once tumultuous relationship with Detective Liz Santangelo and has called a tentative truce with his alcoholic mother, Carolina.

So when lawyer Darcy Gill demands that he look into a hopeless death row case, he's more interested in catching some waves before San Diego's rare winter weather takes hold. Then Darcy plays her trump card: the man scheduled to die -- convicted of killing two men in cold blood -- is the father Noah never knew.

Reviews:
Praise for the Noah Braddock Mysteries

". . . Strong characterization and wonderfully biting humor . . ."
-- Publishers Weekly

"With the traditionally witty, first-person, PI-novel narration and a collection of characters who range from entertaining (Noah's best-friend roomie, Carter) to terrifying (Mo, a large brute who beats Noah nearly to death) to alluring (Liz, Noah's police-officer ex-girlfriend), the one is a winner."
