Synopsis

Former Chicago Police Detective Kyle McNally now owns and operates the Paladin Detective Agency in Ybor City, Florida. He’s a gifted sleuth, being called ‘an honorable man living in a world that cares little for such virtues.’ However, McNally is haunted by a past filled with ill-starred women.
This is book two of the Kyle McNally detective trilogy; he and his fiancée, Dr. Mykel Hartley, a Medical Pathologist, have moved to Tampa, Florida. With their wedding date two weeks away, an approaching category four hurricane threatens their plans. Kyle discovers their marriage is also jeopardized by an unexpected catastrophic incident.
He is joined at Paladin by his clever young friend and former partner from the Chicago P.D., Tony Petrocelli. Together, they work to solve the case of a recent client, convinced by signs from her astrological charts that her life is in grave danger. He not only pursues the truth of his astrology-spooked client, but is also asked to consult with the Tampa police by another friend and former ex-Chicago detective, Leo Davidson. Tampa Police Department is stymied in tracking a merciless serial killer. He calls himself “Y2K,” and his moniker echoes the threat posed to both international business and banking industries at the turn of the 21st century.
Kyle discovers the three cases are spawned from a single criminal mind, and he’s the only one able to unravel the connections depicted in Cigar City Crimes, Triple Jeopardy. They become the heart of this thrilling crime story set against a dark urban backdrop on the historic streets of Ybor City.
Fast-paced and well crafted, Triple Jeopardy is populated by an assortment of unforgettable characters who interact in fascinating settings, moving from urban Tampa, south to the coastal Sarasota Marinas. When the novel arrives at the pulse-pounding conclusion, the believable actors and relentless, rapid-fire scenes combine to leave noire detective fans immensely satisfied.

M. Brooke McCullough was born in Seattle, Washington, and grew up in LaGrange, Illinois. During her teen years, she developed a love of reading, starting with the Nancy Drew mystery books, and later became an avid fan of the entire detective/crime genre. In preparing to write this story, two things were clear: it would be about a detective, and must take place in Chicago. Early in 1992, she committed to writing her first novel and began putting pen to paper. Her lengthy career with the Secret Service and federal court system afforded her many insights into criminal behavior and motivation, which she relied on to create the Canarytown story. McCullough is currently planning for the next Kyle McNally detective story.
