“A deftly constructed crime thriller, Go Find Daddy by novelist Steve Goble will have a very special attraction to readers with an interest in Private Investigator mysteries.” —Midwest Book Review

Praise for the Ed Runyon Mystery Series

“Fast, hard, tough—and terrific.” —Lee Child, New York Times best-selling author of No Plan B

“A terrific new series. Ed Runyon is a relentless cop, and Goble puts a fresh spin on the cop with a haunted past.” —Terry Shames, Lefty and Macavity Award-winning author of the Samuel Craddock series

“Who would ever have thought that from the cornfields of Ohio a fresh voice in crime fiction would emerge? In this debut outing of a new series, Steve Goble delivers an authentic, compelling story of a rural cop with a haunted past. City Problems is both a dynamic procedural and an incisive portrait of a man at war with himself. Although the stunning, profane prose should be savored, I’m betting this is a book you will gobble up in a single sitting.” —William Kent Krueger, New York Times best-selling author of This Tender Land

“City Problems is a crime thriller of rare emotional depth, pathos, and angst. Steve Goble masterfully introduces us to a new hero in Detective Ed Runyon . . . in a bold and bracing fashion reminiscent of Michael Connelly and Robert Crais. And, if Dashiell Hammett or Raymond Chandler had ever chosen a rural setting for their crime novels, this is what it would look like.” —Jon Land, USA Today best-selling author of Strong from the Heart

“Major claps for Steve Goble's Wayward Son. Ed Runyon, PI, takes a licking, but keeps on ticking in this fast-paced follow-up to City Problems. Can Runyon find a missing kid and bring him home? You bet he can. Loved it.” —Tracy Clark, Sue Grafton Memorial Award-winning author

“Steve Goble is a true storyteller, and Wayward Son weaves compelling prose with realistic dialogue and powerful imagery to tell a gritty story with a full, but fast-beating, heart. Highly recommended.” —Mark Pryor, author of Die Around Sundown

“In Wayward Son, Steve Goble is unafraid to tackle the issues of our time head-on, but he does so in an elegant story filled with real, and fascinatingly flawed, characters.” —Mark Pryor, author of Die Around Sundown

“Goble cranks up the heat in Wayward Son. It's a compelling page-turner with all the right moves.” —Rick Mofina, USA Today best-selling author of Her Last Goodbye

"Wayward Son is a hardboiled backroad tale with a slice of heart."—Matt Coyle, Anthony, Shamus, and Lefty Award-winning author 

“Strong prose and convincing characters.” —Publishers Weekly
