Aftermath (The Harry Starke Novels Book 14), my forty-fifth read from author Blair Howard. Well-written and enjoyable, edge-of-your-seat detective fiction, thoroughly entertaining! I always look forward to the next work from Howard. A Blair Howard book is like a visit from an old detective friend. I received a free Audible copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review." Tom Lennon’s excellent narration to the enjoyment of an excellent book. The gifting of this book did not affect my opinion of it. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

The Battle of Tuhude Wilderness!

Our protagonist Harry Starke runs a small investigative detective agency. The story quickly develops. Harry’s wife Amanda had been involved in a prior incident and was currently in a coma at the hospital. In a seemingly unrelated fatal auto accident, the other vehicle is quickly identified as a van owned by a company called CSC and driven by a former military soldier named Louis Walker. Nickolas Christmas a former Army Ranger, runs a small covert private security agency, Christmas Security Concepts (CSC) with connections to U.S. Military Intelligence. Again seemingly unrelated, Harry’s uncle Joseph is taken from the nursing home facility he lived at. Several days later, Harry’s father August, a high-end millionaire lawyer, receives an anonymous phone call that if he does not resign from a wrongful death case involving CSC, his brother Joseph will be killed. Everything points to CSC. Harry and his crew have their hands full and they get started! Lots of action and a couple great firefights. I enjoyed the story and would recommend. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
