Clay Edison has left behind the Alameda County coroner’s office to strike out on his own as a private investigator. He’s perfectly happy working low-stakes embezzlement cases—that is, until PI Regina Klein calls him with a mystery only he can solve. The son of a wealthy couple has washed up dead on the shores of San Francisco Bay with drugs in his system and a head injury. The police are calling it an accident. But the parents are adamant something’s not right—and as Clay digs deeper, he uncovers a horrifying tangle of betrayal and lies.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
A coroner turned PI gets to the bottom of a suspicious drowning in this tense whodunit in Jonathan and Jesse Kellerman’s long-running Clay Edison series. When private eye Regina Klein is hired by a rich family to investigate their son’s supposedly accidental death, she calls on her friend Clay Edison for some expert help. As Clay discovers similarities to a past case, he begins to believe the tragedy wasn’t a terrible mishap but a cold-blooded murder. With their signature readable style and just the right dose of humour, the Kellermans effortlessly pull us into the thrilling world of high-stakes crime solving. We love how they bypass the clichéd hardboiled loner PI, instead giving us a well-adjusted, likeable hero we can cheer for. They even add spice to the story with cutting-edge technology like underwater mapping and artificial intelligence. Coyote Hills gives us an engaging, modern twist on the classic detective novel.
