THE FAMILY THAT SLAYS TOGETHER, STAYS TOGETHER...
Lt. Jacqueline "Jack" Daniels of the Chicago Police Department is back, and once again she's up to her Armani in murder.
Someone is sending Jack snuff videos. The victims are people she knows, and they share a common trait -- each was involved in one of Jack's previous cases. With her stalwart partner hospitalized and unable to help, Jack follows a trail of death throughout the Midwest, on a collision course with the smartest and deadliest adversary she's ever known.
During the chase, Jack jeopardizes her career, her love life, and her closest friends. She also comes to a startling realization -- serial killers have families, and blood runs thick.
Rusty Nail features more of the laugh-out-loud humor and crazy characters that saturated Whiskey Sour and Bloody Mary, without sacrificing the nail-biting thrills. This is Jack Daniels's third, and most exciting, adventure yet.
Crossovers - Features Jack Daniels, Phineas Troutt, Harry McGlade, and includes characters from the Konrath Dark Thriller Collective, the Codename: Chandler series, and the Timecaster series.

Laugh out loud funny, sit on the edge of your seat tense, heartfelt moments, a couple of utterances of “ew.” This third outing for Jack Daniels is great detective novel, a heckuva read–just like the first two. I really dig this cast, this world that Konrath's building.What's most impressive, I think, is the way that the first three entries to this series – while remaining pretty much standalone works – are so intricately tied together. Of course, I appreciated the nod to Robert B. Parker and Spenser, as it was Konrath's chapter from [b:In Pursuit of Spenser: Mystery Writers on Robert B. Parker and the Creation of an American Hero 11441356 In Pursuit of Spenser Mystery Writers on Robert B.
