The Randall & Carver Mysteries pair two investigators in Blair Howard’s newest crime fiction series. Starting with Never Say Dead (2023), the five-book series follows the duo through cases that continue the “Never” titling pattern with Happily Never After, Evil Never Sleeps, Never No More, and Never Ask Why.
The partnership dynamic gives the series a different feel from Howard’s solo-protagonist series. As his third concurrent mystery franchise alongside Harry Starke and Kate Gazzara, it shows Howard continuing to find new approaches to crime fiction within his Chattanooga setting.
