In this “smart and compelling crime novel,” Muslim-American detective Ash Rashid is forced to confront a mastermind with a bloody vendetta — and track down an abducted witness before it’s too late (Jeff Abbott).

Ash Rashid thought his days as a homicide detective were over. Now, with the police force’s community relations department, he gives speeches at elementary schools instead of tracking criminals.

But when he discovers two dead bodies during his evening commute, Ash finds himself back on active duty. As he races to identify the victims and track down an abducted witness, Ash realizes that nothing is what it seems. Every clue — every suspect — leads to new questions and new threats.

Ash’s quest for the truth soon leads him into the dark mind of a master criminal, and Ash has sacrificed too much to back down . . .

Series:

  • "What elevates and sets THE OUTSIDER apart from so many other mystery novels out there is the intriguing Muslim-American detective Ash Rashid and the heartland Indianapolis location -- both gutsy choices. Chris Culver is a writer to watch for years to come."
    C.J. Box, New York Times bestselling author of Breaking Point and The Highway
  • "THE OUTSIDER is a smart and compelling crime novel, and Ash Rashid is a tough yet tender-hearted hero. Chris Culver is a daring new voice in crime fiction. Highly recommended."
    Jeff Abbott, New York Times bestselling author of Downfall
  • "A tale that offers...novelty within a standard cops versus drug dealers plot."
    Publishers Weekly on The Abbey
  • "Ash's struggles to resist the temptations of alcohol, forbidden by his Muslim faith, add depth to his character. Readers will be curious to see what happens to him in his next outing."
    Publishers Weekly on The Outsider
