Go Find Daddy

Fast, hard, tough--and terrific. --Lee Child, New York Times best-selling author of No Plan B A terrific new series. Ed Runyon is a relentless cop, and Goble puts a fresh spin on the cop with a haunted past. --Terry Shames, Lefty and Macavity Award-winning author of the Samuel Craddock series Who would ever have thought that from the cornfields of Ohio a fresh voice in crime fiction would emerge? In this debut outing of a new series, Steve Goble delivers an authentic, compelling story of a rural cop with a haunted past. City Problems is both a dynamic procedural and an incisive portrait of a man at war with himself. Although the stunning, profane prose should be savored, I'm betting this is a book you will gobble up in a single sitting. --William Kent Krueger, New York Times best-selling author City Problems is a crime thriller of rare emotional depth, pathos, and angst. Steve Goble masterfully introduces us to a new hero in Detective Ed Runyon, who finds he can run from his past, but he can't hide, even by moving to bucolic small town America from the grit and grime of the big city. City Problems unearths the dark underbelly lurking beneath American culture and society in a bold and bracing fashion reminiscent of Michael Connelly and Robert Crais. And, if Dashiell Hammett or Raymond Chandler had ever chosen a rural setting for their crime novels, this is what it would look like. --Jon Land, USA Today bestselling author City Problems is a crime thriller of rare emotional depth, pathos, and angst.
