"With the clarity of Robert B. Parker and the complexity of Michael Connolly, [this thriller] disturbs and charms at the same time." -- Booklist Once a cancer patient, former Orlando detective Mike Garrity is a survivor--for now, at least. Death has a way of following him around, like a black cloud over his head. If it's not his own mortality he's thinking about, it's someone else's. Like his teenage daughter's friend who just died of a suspected suicide. Or the woman he's just met in his cancer support group, Debbie, who learns that she doesn't have much longer to live. Maybe Mike has gotten soft during his second chance. He can't refuse to help Debbie when she asks him to track down the son she gave up for adoption more than twenty years ago. But his investigation leads to a dead body, which leads to Mike becoming the prime suspect in the murder. Desperate to clear his name, Mike soon uncovers a shocking betrayal. As a hurricane barrels towards the Sunshine State, a different kind of storm is brewing, one that will send Mike--and everyone he loves--running for cover . . . Praise for Head Games "An Orlando, Florida, thriller that reads like a high-speed theme park ride . . . with dark humor so sharp it'll make you bleed." --Brian Freeman, New York Times -bestselling author "Carl Hiaasen fans will be thrilled to know there's a new kid on the block. If you liked Basket Case , you'll flip over Thomas B. Cavanagh's sardonically and outrageously funny lead character." --Charlotte Hughes, New York Times -bestselling author

Seller's Description:
New in New dust jacket. Protected in a removable archival cover. Black binding with title and author on spine in gold. Full number line 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. 304 pages. A Mike Garrity Mystery, No. 2. Three months after he's undergone surgery to remove a brain tumor, retired police detective Mike Garrity's cancer is in remission. It's great news, but when you've been planning to only live for a few months, you don't normally worry about savings. A return to health also means a return to the workforce, and whether he likes it or not, Mike's going to have to adjust to the role of private investigator. He's also bounced back into a romance with a member of his cancer support group, Debbie Watson. But while Mike may be celebrating his victory over cancer, Debbie's just been handed a grim prognosis. Desperate, she asks him for help with what might be her last request: tracking down the son she put up for adoption twenty years ago. Debbie's son is not the only lost child Mike has been asked to trace. A high school friend of his daughter has died of an overdose. The boy's father is convinced that the death was not a suicide and, though the case is officially closed, the officer in charge has his own doubts about its conclusion. Back at work and stumbling headlong into a new relationship, Mike should have a lot to look forward to. But all is not as it seems, and he's about to find out that cancer isn't the only thing trying to kill him.
