Synopsis

#1 New York Times Bestselling AuthorLos Angeles cop John "Tidal Wave" McGrave is an unstoppable force of nature who always gets his man...even if it means laying waste to everything around him, including his own career...which is exactly what happens in his pursuit of Sebastian Richter, the ruthless leader of an international gang of violent thieves.

When Richter flees to Berlin, McGrave chases after him...even though the cop doesn't know the language, the laws, or the culture. But McGrave doesn't care...he speaks the universal language of knee in the groin and fist in the face...and he won't let anything get in his way.

Hold on tight for a wild, rollicking, action-adventure novella that captures all of the fun, excitement and pure escapist pleasure of the "Dirty Harry," "Lethal Weapon" and "Die Hard" movies...with the humor, sharp dialogue and inventiveness that you've come to expect from Lee Goldberg, #1 New York Times bestselling author of "The Walk," "Watch Me Die," "The Dead Man," fifteen hilarious Adrian Monk mysteries, and the five globally bestselling Fox & O'Hare thrillers co-written with Janet Evanovich. 

"McGrave" is guaranteed to leave you breathless...and with a big smile on your face.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM FOR McGRAVE: 

 "Lee Goldberg has answered one of my prayers. A new lawman-in-new-territory series. McGrave is everything I've been waiting for. The L.A. detective ends up across the pond, bringing American bravado to the streets of Berlin. This a first-rate, one-night read. For me it's a five-star implementation of a five-star idea," Mugshots Blog

"Goldberg pulls off a very neat trick, producing a yarn that's part serious, part satire, and all action. It seems like I had a grin on my face the whole time I was reading it. I loved it," James Reasoner, author of Texas Wind

"McGrave is a straight up actioner, pure fun," Right What You Know

"It's terrific. Non-stop action and a lot of laughs. Reading it was like watching a great action movie." Bill Crider, author of Outrage at Blanco.
