The Amara Alvarez series by Tom Threadgill features Detective Amara Alvarez of the San Antonio Police Department. In Collision of Lies (2020), Alvarez investigates a case that starts with a car accident and unravels into something much bigger. Network of Deceit (2021) continues with another case where nothing is quite what it seems.

Threadgill writes police procedurals with a Texas setting, grounding the stories in real-world investigative work while building enough mystery to keep readers engaged. Alvarez is a capable, no-nonsense protagonist, and the two books move fast.
