    Larry Macklin doesn't have a badge anymore. He gave it back. He has a cat, a girlfriend, and no plans. 
    A month after walking away from his job as an investigator for his father's sheriff's office, Larry agrees to one favor: find Shantel's missing niece. What starts as a search through dive bars and teenage gossip ends in a locked room, a young woman in a coma, and a chilling question. Has the Swamp Hacker returned? 
    Sixteen years ago, the killer took young women from the backroads of Adams and Leon Counties and was never caught. Now the bodies are turning up again. With the department shorthanded, Larry is pulled in alongside his sardonic partner Pete Henley and Sheriff Ted Macklin, who has never stopped hunting this monster. 
    Between alibi checks, autopsies, and a long list of white vans, Larry has to face what really drove him to quit, and whether he has the nerve to come back. Because the killer is losing control and they’re running out of time to stop him. 
    February’s Regrets is the fourth book in the addictive, fast-paced Larry Macklin Mysteries series, a small-town police procedural full of sharp dialogue and dry humor. 
    Readers have compared Macklin to Bosch, Reacher, and Longmire. Get your copy today!

    A woman is tried for shooting her husband in camp in Rajputana — a brute whom half the station believes she had every reason to kill — and the one man whose evidence can acquit her is Henry Thresk, a rising barrister who once loved her and knows exactly what speaking up will cost him. Mason had been an actor and an MP and would go on to run naval intelligence in Spain; he wrote the story first as a play, and the courtroom scenes still move like a stage. Fifty-nine plates, among them portraits by Edvard Munch and William Orpen, extend the book's study of character under pressure from the Rajputana camp to the wider stage.
