Murder in Buckhead by Behcet Kaya

5.0

Murder in Buckhead by Behcet Kaya is a well-written and multilayered thriller that puts you in the dark undercurrents of Atlanta's posh Buckhead district. Jack Ludefance, a Florida-based private investigator, quite familiar with alligators, finds himself embroiled in secrets, murder, and high-stakes deceit. This time around, Jack is dealing with a ton of complexity, but of course, it is not beyond his capabilities. Kaya's powerful and distinct writing combines richness and grime, portraying Atlanta and Buckhead in particular in vivid, dramatic detail. With the assistance of a brilliant young hacker and a no-nonsense investigator, Jack uncovers realities that twist with each chapter. While the writing is on point, the pace and plot hold your attention as you're trying to figure it all out. This is, without a doubt, one of the most fascinating books in the series. It is suspenseful, intellectual, and full of surprises.
