The Harry Starke series is Blair Howard’s flagship crime series, following a Chattanooga private detective through 29 cases from 2015 to 2025. Harry Starke (2015) introduces the character, and the series has expanded steadily with titles like Two for the Money, Retribution, Apocalypse, and End Game building a comprehensive picture of Starke’s career and city.
The series grows darker and more complex over its run, with later entries like Unhinged, Presumed Dead, and Buried Secrets raising the personal stakes for Starke. The 29-book length gives readers a substantial body of work to explore, and the Chattanooga setting provides a distinctive backdrop for a PI series outside the usual New York or Los Angeles locations.
