Orchid Blues [Paperback]

Stuart Woods brings back small-town police chief Holly Barker—and her extraordinary Doberman, Daisy—for another exhilarating adventure in this New York Times bestseller.

When Holly Barker’s wedding festivities are shattered by a brutal robbery, she vows to find the culprits. With nothing to go on but the inexplicable killing of an innocent bystander, Holly discovers evidence that leads her into the midst of a clan whose members are as mysterious as they are zealous. Holly’s father, Ham, a retired army master sergeant, is her ticket into their strange world. What he finds there boggles the mind and sucks them all—Holly, Ham, and Daisy—into a whirlpool of crazed criminality from which even the FBI can’t save them...“Starts with a bang.”—Publishers Weekly

 

“Mr. Woods delivers smart characters and dialogue with a nice swing to it.... Holly and Ham are engaging…with a lot of gumption and tough-talking banter between them.”—The New York  Times

 

“Fast paced and exciting…sure to please his fans.”—Booklist
