About this ebook
Three complete novels in the gripping police procedural series set in 1970s Montreal.
This volume includes three novels in the acclaimed series starring Eddie Dougherty:
Black Rock
In 1970 Montreal, the “Vampire Killer” has murdered three women and a fourth is missing. Bombs explode in the stock exchange, riots break out, and the Canadian army moves onto the streets. In the midst of this explosive era, a young beat cop, son of a French mother and an Irish-Canadian father, finds himself virtually alone hunting a serial killer as the rest of the force focuses on a crisis . . .
A Little More Free
Labor Day weekend, 1972: As Montreal prepares to host a historic hockey game between Canada and the USSR, Constable Eddie Dougherty witnesses the deaths of thirty-seven people in a deliberately set nightclub fire—and discovers the body of a murdered young man on Mount Royal—in a case that draws him into the world of American draft dodgers and deserters, class politics, and organized crime.
One or the Other
In the weeks before the 1976 Summer Olympics, the Montreal police are bolstering security to prevent another catastrophe like the ’72 games in Munich. But it isn’t tight enough to stop nearly three million dollars being stolen in a bold daytime Brink’s truck robbery—and Eddie Dougherty is about to find his chance to prove himself as a detective . . .
