Once In, Never Out

A girl missing in New York. A political bombing in Iceland. No ordinary cop would see a connection. But Detective First Grade Brian McKenna didn't earn his reputation by being ordinary. In Once In, Never Out, McKenna travels the globe in pursuit of his darkest foe yet--a terrorist bomber whose next target could be New York's St. Patrick's Day Parade. Along the way he finds a good friend and cunning ally in Thor Erikson, Iceland's sole homicide detective. This is a case that brings McKenna to the edge of his abilities, and puts both his detecting and survival skills to the ultimate test.

Hyde

With first-hand experience and masterful storytelling skills, former NYPD Capitan Dan Mahoney presents his most thrilling work to date. NYPD Detective Brian McKenna is back where he belongs--hunting down a mysterious killer who preys upon the city's most forgotten members. At first blush, it seems as if these homeless men have frozen to death on the city streets. But this succession of deaths seems too suspicious for McKenna to ignore. McKenna makes some curious findings: all the victims were HIV-positive, and all were seen taking their last drink from a bottle of wine given them by a gaunt, black-clad man who goes by the name "Hyde." Who is this sinister figure--and why is he killing harmless men who are already at death's door? A hell-bent McKenna must chace the murderer from the streets of Manhattan through Europe and finally to Costa Rica to uncover the astounding answer.
