Book Review: Blowback by H. Max Hiller (Detective Cadillac Holland Mystery Series Book 1)


     After his father went missing during Katrina his mother used her contacts to get Cadillac onto the State police force. Not wanting to deal with him his CO sends him on assignments with the local force that allows him to continue his search father while completing tasks. His current is to find Michael and bring him in. While searching Cadillac discovers that bringing him in may result in his death and he may not be what he seems. Should he accomplish the mission at hand or find the true culprit behind the gun smuggling?

    I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review. This book goes in depth about the devastation caused by Katrina while showing that life continues on. The police are still working to contain criminals and find truth while making the best of resources on hand. 

    The storyline is entertaining and I am curious to see if Cadillac's friend will open his restaurant. We didn't get much into his search for his father in this book, but it seems like it was setting up for that to be a running background story as the series progresses. 

    I think my favorite character in the book was Michael's fiancĂ©e. I can't remember her name, but she has a take no shit attitude which you can't help but adore. This book seems like a more accurate portrayal of police activity versus constant high stakes that is a lot of what you read. In fact this story is pretty calm with only a few bright spots of action.
