Dark Harbor

One dead millionaire, one dead intruder, and a detective whose only path forward means exposing the secrets of Bar Harbor’s wealthy elite. Detective Brock Justice never imagined the glittering coastal town of Bar Harbor would be his next battleground. When multimillionaire Granville Warren and an unidentifiable burglar turn up dead in a mansion break-in gone awry, the evidence points straight to Granville’s much younger wife, Lily. Her self-defense claim raises more suspicion than sympathy, and Brock must untangle a crime scene awash in contradictions. Justice’s instincts scream there's more beneath the polished surface of Bar Harbor’s elite, but the last thing he needs is interference from inside his own ranks. Enter Samantha Osborn, a detective just back from a task force assignment—too polished, too eager, and watching his every move. Brock doesn’t believe in coincidences, and Osborn smells like trouble from a mile away. As Brock and his team pushes deeper into the Warren case, each uncovered clue pulls them further into Bar Harbor’s deep-seated corruption. Haunted by past mistakes and facing powerful figures intent on keeping their secrets hidden, Justice must walk a razor’s edge to solve this twisted case—or risk losing his career, his reputation, and possibly his life. With intricate plotting reminiscent of Craig Johnson’s Longmire and the relentless, atmospheric tension of C.J. Box’s Joe Pickett, Bruce Robert Coffin delivers another gripping Detective Justice novel that cuts straight to the bone. _________________________ Praise for the Detective Justice series: “…reads like the real deal—a tale of trial and redemption…” —Craig Johnson, author of the Walt Longmire Mysteries “A superior, Connelly-esque procedural that ratchets up the tension page by page.” —Reed Farrel Coleman, New York Times bestselling author of Blind to Midnight “Smooth as buttah in the telling, Coffin’s layered characters almost leap off the page to sit in your lap.” —Tracy Clark, award-winning author of the Cass Raines Chicago Mystery series and the Det.
