The Last Of Maggie

Two time zones. Same body count.

DI Liam McLaughlin thought he'd left murder behind in Derry. The body found in a field under a full moon was bad enough—savaged, staged, and whispered about as something not quite human. But when McLaughlin travels to Egypt for a long-overdue holiday with his teenage daughter, death isn't finished with him yet.

On a Nile cruise crowded with international tourists, he crosses paths with a group of mature students from Derry. When their charismatic lecturer, Dr. Maggie McCracken, is found dead during a nighttime visit to an ancient temple, McLaughlin is suddenly hunting a killer on foreign soil—alone.

Out of his depth and out of his jurisdiction, McLaughlin turns to his team back home—D'Arcy, Lyons, Hawkins and Cahill—who continue digging into the Derry case while quietly pulling apart the secrets of Maggie's students.

Different continents. Different killers. The same race against time.

The fifth in the NUMBER ONE bestselling Derry Murder Mysteries, Out of Jurisdiction: The Last of Maggie is a standalone, another gripping, gritty mystery thriller with jaw-dropping twists and a touch of Gerald Hansen's signature dark humor.
