This compilation includes the first three Detective Danny Acuff serials.
Book description from Episode 1: Danny Acuff is forced to give up his dream job as a detective in the Memphis Police Department and soon finds himself in a totally different world: the slow-moving, quaint police force of the Akin Police Department.
Almost everything is done differently here and his fellow officers see Danny as too eager and distrusting of the local, big-named citizens. These locals are good-hearted people with long family histories, they try to tell him.
But Danny thinks differently, and the hot-shot detective and prior Marine soon finds himself tangling with murderers, big boys from the hills sent to run him off, and even a dangerous couple of Special Forces men. All this happens while his personal life spins completely out of control.
(Series Note: Each book in this series is more like an episode on TV than a stand-alone novel. Each book/serial is part of a long, continuing storyline. Fans who enjoy authors James Patterson and Robert B. Parker should reallly enjoy this series.)
