Lies convict, but the truth condemns. When five people die from tainted pain medication, Governor Duncan Cochrane must lead the investigation. The clues quickly point to sabotage, threatening all the citizens of Chicago. Meanwhile, his son's drunken confession leaks to a journalist with an agenda. To protect his reputation and his family, Duncan keeps the boy by his side, yet he also needs to campaign for reelection. Can he manage all three without sacrificing his family or his office? A taut mystery blending politics with murder, "They Tell Me You Are Brutal" marks the third book in the "Duncan Cochrane" series by David Hagerty. [Crime Thriller, Political Thriller, Murder Mystery] "THEY TELL ME YOU ARE BRUTAL" by David Hagerty Evolved Publishing presents the third book in the Duncan Cochrane series of crime mysteries detailing Duncan's rise to prominence and the personal cost of his public ambitions. Praise for Book 1-"They Tell Me You Are Wicked": "It works as a whodunit, but it's Cochrane's story and political life that'll provide the fuel for this series." ~ Crime Thriller Hound "...a compelling picture of the Windy City when it was still in thrall to the mob and its own unique political machine." ~ Shots Magazine "...outstanding and it is so well-written and well-plotted that it is hard to believe it is a debut novel." ~ Theresa O'Loughlin "This is one of those surprise-ending novels that are so tightly constructed that it's hard to write synopsis without giving away an important detail. Hagerty makes a contemporary political point, but gently enough that you can just enjoy the story if you are not interested in the politics. If you are interested in modern American politics, he may help you understand how people come to take sides on a current issue." ~ Scott D. Saifer Praise for Book 2-"They Tell Me You Are Crooked": "Another fast paced can't put down book by David Hagerty. Like his first book he keeps you guessing what will happen and then bring you an unexpected "I didn't see that coming" ending. This book is another winner!" ~ Terez Lyle More Great Crime Thrillers from Evolved Publishing: The Last Meridian by Joe Hefferon Fracture Point and Shatter Point by Jeff Altabef Forgive Me, Alex by Lane Diamond The Syndicate-Born Trilogy by K.M. Hodge

Autorenporträt
AUTHOR: Stories about crimes have always resonated with me, whether it was "Crime and Punishment" or "The Quiet American." Maybe it's because I started my career as a police reporter, or because I worked for a time as a teacher in the county jail. More than a decade ago, when I decided to finally get serious about writing, I started with short stories based on real misdeeds I'd witnessed. I wrote one about my next door neighbor, who'd been murdered by a friend, another about an ambitious bike racer who decides to take out the competition, and a bunch of others based on characters I met in jail. Over time these got picked up by various magazines online and in print. More than a dozen now exist, with most of the latest in Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine and Big Pulp. For my debut novel, "They Tell Me You Are Wicked," I drew inspiration from the most infamous event in the history of my hometown: the real life killing of a political candidate's daughter (though I made up all the details). Now I am at work on a second volume in the series, set two years later, after my hero, Duncan Cochrane, has become governor. He's haunted by the family secret that got him elected, and fighting a sniper who's targeting children in Chicago.
