The Detectives Kane and Alton series is D.K. Hood’s flagship crime fiction series, set in the fictional town of Black Rock Falls, Montana. Sheriff Jenna Alton runs the local department, and her deputy, David Kane, is a former special forces operative who has been placed in witness protection after his wife was murdered. Together, they face an improbable number of serial killers and violent criminals in their small mountain town.

The series began with Don’t Tell a Soul in 2017 and has grown rapidly, with Hood publishing multiple installments each year. Each book features a standalone murder investigation, but the relationship between Kane and Alton develops across the series. The books are published by Bookouture and have built a large readership among fans of police procedurals and small-town crime fiction. The list above includes some foreign-language translations that were published as separate editions.
