Blowback
A “Cadillac” Holland Mystery
by H. Max Hiller
Every story needs a beginning.
The story of Louisiana State Police Detective Cadillac Holland’s legend began with what should have been a simple fugitive case. It’s hard to find a man who doesn’t want to be found, and harder still when you have trouble telling the destruction left in the wake of Hurricane Katrina from the bombed out streets of Baghdad you left behind in an ambush that nearly took your life.
Detective Holland is building a reputation for leaving a trail of unintended consequences in his path, but he will always get his man.
REVIEW
5 out of 5
I could 100% see this being the pilot of a TV show. I definitely need to check out the rest of the books. This was a great story, and I absolutely loved Holland! He kind of reminded me of Gibbs from NCIS with a few of the things he did (but I don’t want to give any spoilers). Following Holland around New Orleans chasing down Ferris and uncovering the shady goings-on kept me turning pages, and I was a little sad to return to the real world. I look forward to reading more adventures of Detective Holland!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
My relationship with New Orleans began with a job cooking in a cafe on Bourbon Street at the age of seventeen. My foodservice resume now includes many of New Orleans’ iconic music and dining destinations. I no longer reside in New Orleans full time but I keep to the expat creed of “Be a New Orleanian wherever you are.”
A devoted reader of detective and crime novels, I have worked as a chef on a boat traveling the inland waterways since Hurricane Katrina and began thinking up stories about a detective living in post-Katrina New Orleans, which I now write in my spare time.
My life is divided between working on the water and preserving a Victorian-era home in Hannibal, Missouri that I share with my wife and our rescue pets, which include a neurotic wolfhound/terrier mix and too many cats.
