Description
Former homicide detective and star of Investigation Discovery, Joe Kenda follows his authentic and fascinating debut novel with First Do No Harm, another addictive tale of crime and punishment as only he can tell it.
A string of overdoses in Colorado Springs has Detectives Joe Kenda and Lee Wilson on the lookout for a bad batch of heroin that has been cut with a drug they’ve never seen before.
Meanwhile, at Springs General Hospital, Dr. Blair Moreland—the notoriously unpleasant head anesthesiologist—has found a way to feed his deepening addiction to the very same powerful new drug: Fentanyl.
But when Dr. Moreland starts supplying the dangerous painkiller to dealer Lula Lopez—planning to manufacture the drug himself—he angers a Mexican crime syndicate and sets into motion a cycle of death and violence that threatens to engulf the entire city.
Detectives Kenda and Wilson must track down the source of this killer heroin before anyone else can overdose—and stop Moreland before he can escape the long arm of the law.

Joe Kenda can write a story! I love the way he weaves this gritty novel, pulled me in from the first page.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing this book in exchange for an honest review.
Wow, what a book! I love Joe Kenda's sense of humor and the way he writes his fiction books as if the events as if they really happened. (His nonfiction books are great too!)
This book had me hooked from the start. There were a lot of characters to keep straight, which sometimes I have trouble with. But this book was so engaging, I was able to keep track of who was who.
Highly recommend if you want a somewhat gritty mystery novel.
