Chaser

Why did Holly Schwartz murder her mother? And where is she now?

On the sun-scorched streets of Phoenix, Arizona, bounty hunter Jinx Ballou is hot on the teenage murder suspect’s trail, determined to return her to custody. But new evidence leads Jinx to question whether Holly is really a ruthless killer or just another victim.

Jinx's investigation puts her on the radar of a sadistic human trafficker. To bring in Holly and get out alive, Jinx must push her skills, her body, and her luck to the limit.

"Dharma Kelleher delivers badass, blue-collar crime fiction with a snappy sense of humor and a lot of heart."
—Thomas Pluck, Anthony-finalist author of BAD BOY BOOGIE

"Chaser is a delightful and suspenseful page-turner with heart."
—Janet Mason, reviewer for THIS WAY OUT

"Dharma Kelleher has created one of the most unique characters in crime fiction. Bounty hunter Jinx Ballou is a creation of contrasting parts. She's tough but compassionate, profane but sensitive, butch but feminine—and there's no dark alley she won't walk down."
—Renee James, author of SEVEN SUSPECTS

"With CHASER, Dharma Kelleher breaks new ground and breathes new life into a great genre. Jinx Ballou is the best thing to happen to crime fiction since V. I. Warshawski."
—Greg Barth, author of SELENA
