Rick Cahill can't escape his past??or his father's
Rick Cahill has long feared the truth about his own blood??the blood of his father coursing through his veins.
When a long-hidden safe unlocks clues about why his father was kicked off the police force twenty-seven years ago and then spiraled into an early drunken death, Rick determines to find the truth even if it proves the one thing he's always feared.
But as he grapples with his father's past, the woman he still loves pleads with him to find out if her husband is having an affair??or is involved in something much more sinister. Could the truth send her back into Rick's arms? Would he have a last shot at happiness?
He may never get the chance to find out, as killers who will do anything to protect their secrets lurk in the shadows.
A hard-boiled PI novel for fans of Raymond Chandler, Ross MacDonald, and Dashiell Hammett

I enjoyed this book even though the main character was kind of a downer. His personal relationships were sad and his whole life seemed tragic. I think the author should have developed some of the sub characters a little bit more. All the characters were rather antagonistic towards Rick and there were hints as to why but the reasons were not spelled out. Having said that, the dual mysteries were interesting and well laid out. I was glad that the main character was able to clear up a lifelong mystery but his entire life seemed so sad it was a little depressing. Still, I liked the story. ( )

Book 4 of the Rick Cahill series finds the hard-boiled PI coming to turn with his father’s truth. While this story is a deep look into his protagonist’s emotional depth, Coyle does not disappoint those readers wanting a tough, intriguing plot. In fact, Cahill’s father’s history comes back to bite Cahill—so he thinks, only to find that we are never far from those who brought us into the world. Not sure what that means? Read Blood Truth is driven to find out Rick Cahill’s “blood truth” no matter where it might take him.

Detective series about Rick Cahill. This was a stand-alone read that gumshoe Cahill kept moving on a mission of a personal nature. Lost Love Kim Parker needs PI Cahill to trail her husband who she suspects is having an affair. Childhood demons of his father Charles haunt Rick when a hidden safe is discovered. Police could be called to assist but which one would help out and which one will prove fatal. Wanted more about Rick's side kick detective Moira McFarland because she was a hoot. A bit over the time with the scrapes Rick got into and was unable to be victorious. Anyway.. entertaining crime-murder mystery with some good and bad characters. "A copy of this book was provided by Oceanview Publishing via Netgalley with no requirements for a review. Comments here are my honest opinion." ( )

When P.I. Rick Cahill’s ex-girlfriend, Kim, comes to him with a problem, he cannot deny her request for help because he’s still in love with her. She fears her husband is cheating on her and she trusts no one but Cahill whose forte happens to be tailing wayward spouses. What he sees appears to be philandering, but as Cahill digs deeper, it becomes something more complicated, especially when a “solid citizen” with a notorious past enters the picture.

Simultaneously, Cahill receives a phone call from a contractor who found a hidden safe while demolishing Cahill’s boyhood home. Upon opening it, Cahill finds a gun, $15,000 in cash and safe deposit box key. His father, a dishonored La Jolla policeman who died a broken man after years of ostracism and alcohol, was rumored to be on the mob payroll, but Rick, who idolized his father, always held out hope that the rumors were false. Could this be evidence that they indeed were true?

This fourth entry in the Rick Cahill series, after Dark Fissures, provides readers with a lot of action. Cahill does take his share of knocks. The plot moves along quickly. Cahill’s part time partner, Moira, a true curmudgeon, provides the smart repartee exhibited by many crime novel sidekicks.

Cahill’s antagonistic relationship with the local police, carried forward from previous books, continues unabated. A little more background, while alluded to, would have been nice, although its absence doesn’t really hinder enjoyment of this solid book. My only other criticism is that Coyle keeps harping on the rumors and demise and Cahill’s idolizing of his father. It was made crystal clear a few pages into the book and there was no need for the constant repetition. All in all, though, Blood Truth was a good read and while I’d read more books in the series, I wouldn’t necessarily go specifically looking for them. ( )
