New Hardboiled Mystery/Thriller Novel Just Released
My latest mystery novel LEAST WANTED has just been published. It's the sequel to IDENTITY CRISIS, which was the #1 hardboiled mystery on Amazon for several weeks last summer.
You can find LEAST WANTED on Amazon, BN.com or Smashwords. Description: Maryland lawyer Stephanie Ann "Sam" McRae has two tough cases that quickly turn worse, when both clients—a poor black girl and a white, middle-class man—are accused of murder. Sam's inquiries into the cases lead her to Washington, DC's suburban ghettos where she discovers an odd link between them: the seamy world of girl gangs and computer pornography. The stakes rise considerably as more people die at the hands of a maniacal killer who'll do anything to keep Sam from learning the truth. Sam races to clear her clients before she becomes the next victim. What Others Are Saying: "LEAST WANTED is a brave, heartbreaking, and thrilling book with a complex plot that takes attorney Sam McRae on a dizzying tour of several circles of urban hell, against a backdrop of white-collar crime. I loved it, and I admire Mack for writing it without flinching or suggesting easy answers. It's a sequel that outdoes IDENTITY CRISIS and holds the promise of a great series." -- Timothy Hallinan, author of THE QUEEN OF PATPONG and CRASHED "In LEAST WANTED, Debbi Mack serves up a solid mystery plot wired together with high octane suspense. Washington, DC attorney Sam McRae is smart, tough and dedicated, but her latest cases in LEAST WANTED push her to her limits. Defending two clients accused of murder, she finds herself dealing with girl gangs, pornography and crazed killers. For mystery and suspense, it’s Laura Lippman’s Tess Monaghan in Baltimore and Robert B. Parker’s Spenser in Boston, but Sam McRae is the woman to have at your back in Washington." -- Austin S. Camacho, author of the Hannibal Jones mystery series "Sam McRae is back and as brash as ever, with a colorful cast, a relentless plot, and enough twists to leave you breathless. Debbi Mack has carved her own niche in the mystery pantheon." -- Scott Nicholson, author of DISINTEGRATION "Fast-paced and brimming with dark, twisting plot turns, LEAST WANTED will keep crime and mystery buffs off balance and guessing until the very end." -- J.T. Cummins, author of COBBLESTONES "From its clever—and ironic—title to the carefully drawn characters ..., LEAST WANTED is a worthy sequel to Debbi Mack's first crime novel." -- Jeremiah Healy, author of THE ONLY GOOD LAWYER and A STAIN UPON THE ROBE "LEAST WANTED hooks you from the start and never lets go. A fascinating and absorbing mystery." --Simon Wood, author of LOWLIFES I hope you'll consider reading it. Thanks! Best, Debbi [Links deleted - MODERATOR] Last edited by Dr. Drib; 03-10-2014 at 12:07 PM. |

Congrats to Debbi! Identity Crisis is listed as Number 35 on this week's New York Times Best Selling eBook Fiction. I believe it is the first "self-published" title to make the list.
To be "officially recognized", you have to be on the list at least one week in position's 1 to 25 ... but even to reach "Also Selling ..." on the list is a remarkable achievement. This week's list features Jodi Picault, Lisa Gardner, James Patterson, Stieg Larsson, JD Robb ... and that's just in the top 10. Again, congrats! ![]() |
