On Harrow Hill: A Dave Guerney Novel
(OverDrive MP3 Audiobook, OverDrive Listen)
The idyllic community of Larchfield is rocked to its core when Angus Russell, its wealthiest and most powerful citizen, is found dead in his mansion on Harrow Hill. A preliminary analysis of DNA gathered at the crime scene points to the guilt of local bad boy Billy Tate, whose hatred for the victim was well known. Except that Tate fell from the roof of a local church and was declared dead by the medical examiner the day before Russell was killed. When police rush to the mortuary, they discover Tate's coffin has been broken open from the inside and the body is gone.
A series of murders soon follows as Larchfield loses its collective mind. Gun sales explode. Conspiracy theories and religious fundamentalism spread. The once-peaceful town becomes a magnet for sensation seekers, self-proclaimed zombie hunters, TV producers eager for ratings, and apocalyptic preachers rallying the faithful for the end of days. His quiet retirement shattered, ex-NYPD detective Dave Gurney finds himself not only facing down a murderer, but struggling to restore order to the town rapidly spiraling out of control.

Starred review from January 4, 2021
Verdon’s brilliant seventh mystery featuring retired NYPD homicide detective Dave Gurney (after 2018’s White River Burning) showcases a nifty impossible crime variant. Gurney’s former partner, Mike Morgan, who once saved his life, is now the police chief of the affluent village of Larchfield, N.Y., where Gurney now lives and crime is low. Then an intruder slashes the throat of Angus Russell, Larchfield’s main power player, in his home. The killer’s identity appears to be obvious, as the fingerprints of Billy Tate, a local ex-con who threatened Russell, are found in Russell’s bedroom, but it’s impossible for Tate to be guilty. The night before, Tate was pronounced dead after being struck by lightning and falling from the roof of a church he was vandalizing in front of multiple witnesses, including Morgan. Gurney joins the inquiry, which gets even weirder after a video shows Tate breaking out of the coffin where his body was stored. The surprises keep coming as the plot builds to an impressive reveal. Verdon has never been better at crafting a bizarre setup and resolving it in a satisfactory way. Agent: Lucy Carson, Friedrich Agency.

- content: In the seventh entry in this series, narrator Scott Brick navigates one plot twist after another. Retired NYPD cop Dave Gurney lends a hand when his former partner, Mick Morgan, investigates a lurid murder in the village of Larchfield. When its patriarch is found dead in his mansion, the number one suspect is Billy Tate. He has plenty of motive but is inconveniently killed by lightning. Or is he? Brick utilizes a rich timbre as he describes the picturesque Harrow Hill and adds an emotional edge as Gurney reveals clues and eliminates suspects. One of Brick's many talents is flawless timing, which he especially applies as the story approaches its shocking end. R.O. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine
