Rory Flynn is a suspense writer to watch.\"--Jess Walter, author of the best-selling Beautiful Ruins Harvard-educated Eddy Harkness was a rising star in an elite Boston Police Department narcotics unit--until he was blamed for the death of a Red Sox fan in the chaotic aftermath of a World Series win. Scapegoated and exiled, Harkness now empties parking meters in the sleepy town of Nagog while struggling to clear his name. Then one night his police-issued Glock disappears. Unable to report the theft, he starts a secret search--just as a string of fatal accidents leads him to uncover a dangerous new smart drug, Third Rail. With only a plastic gun to protect him, Harkness begins a high-stakes investigation that leads him into the top levels of Boston's power base, where politicians and criminals intertwine to deadly effect. \"Glows with the kind of sawdust-dry humor regarding Beantown, cops, and the darkest of urban underbellies that you might find at 3 a.m. in the back booth of a backstreet bar . . . With its gaggle of crazy-yet-riveting characters, its spare approach, and its unflagging action, Third Rail, the first in a promised series of Eddy Harkness novels, adds yet another striking feather to [Flynn's] impressively crowded cap.\" --Boston Globe \"Terrific debut . . . impressive economy and stylish, sophisticated prose . . . Readers will want to see more of Flynn's gritty Boston--and Eddy Harkness.\"--Publishers Weekly, starred review\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mariner Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42977779548326,"sku":"9780544483927","price":17.9,"currency_code":"MYR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0443\/8471\/4918\/products\/9780544483927_1_9e3af2e0-e764-4763-9ee8-7afa71426b85.jpg?v=1656104193","url":"https:\/\/bookxcess.myshopify.com\/products\/third-rail-9780544483927","provider":"Staging Site ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
