THE PAST NEVER DIES...

When Jacqueline "Jack" Daniels still worked for Homicide in the Chicago Police Department, she had an adversary who became the most evil, and most formidable, villain she'd ever met.

Alex Kork. A serial killer of extraordinary brilliance and cruelty.

Jack was 100% sure that Alex was gone forever.

But you can never be 100% sure about anything. Life is full of surprises.

Death is also full of surprises.

And death is coming.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Joe Konrath has written over twenty novels in the Lt. Jacqueline "Jack" Daniels thriller series. They do not have to be read chronologically to be enjoyed, but the order is: Whiskey Sour, Bloody Mary, Rusty Nail, Dirty Martini, Shot of Tequila, Fuzzy Navel, Cherry Bomb, Dead On My Feet, Serial Killers Uncut (with Blake Crouch), Shaken, Stirred (with Blake Crouch), Dying Breath, Everybody Dies, Rum Runner, Last Call, White Russian, Shot Girl, Chaser, Old Fashioned, Bite Force, and Witch Brew. More coming soon.

Wow, that's a lot of Jack.

If you like your thrillers on the dark side, check out the Konrath Dark Thriller Collective, which includes the books The List, Origin, Afraid, Trapped, Endurance, Haunted House, Webcam, Disturb, What Happened To Lori, The Nine, Second Coming, and Close Your Eyes.

Joe also wrote the Stop A Murder mystery puzzle series, where you become the sleuth and solve brain teasers to try and catch a killer.

He also wrote the sci-fi trilogy, Timecaster, Timecaster Supersymmetry, and Timecaster Steampunk. Even if you don't think you like sci-fi, give them a try. They feature Joe's well-known characters from his other series, and are insane.

With Ann Voss Peterson he wrote the Codename: Chandler thrillers, including Flee, Spree, Three, Hit, Exposed, Naughty, Fix (with F. Paul Wilson), Rescue, and Free.

And, finally, he writes erotica under the pen name Melinda DuChamp, also with Ann Voss Peterson. Those books are probably too spicy for you, so only the brave and bold should seek them out.

Joe writes a lot. You should probably read everything.

    I've been a JAK reader for years and this is one of his best! It not only was LOL funny at times but also had some seriously creepy 80's Thomas Harris vibes. Also excellent if you like poetry. /s 5-stars.

    It was very typical J.A. Konrath. Some of the storyline was a bit over the top when it came to even remotely being believable. It was a good read and held me in suspense as to how the day would be saved in the end.

    The gang is back. Even the dead ones. Lots of links to books I now want to go back and read. (Mu and Bub are thankfully absent.

    Sam, Phin and Jackʼs precocious daughter, takes the lead. Harry Jr. is happily absent. No, there he is. Sigh.

    In a very weird turn of events, Jack decides to bake cookies. Even Duffy won't eat them.

    This feels like the end.

    PSYCH!! Cliffhanger.

    This is a keeper.

    Konrath can write a good story. I laughed out loud, sat on the edge of my seat, and held my breath. But at some point it gets repetitive. Create some new characters. Find a new horror. There are so many available to choose from. I have like Jack Daniels for 23 books, and Harry and Phin. But it’s time for someone else.
