Knockout: Ava Butler 3 — A What Doesn't Kill You Super Series Mystery

For fans of Karin Slaughter, Sandra Brown, and Lisa Gardner — the explosive finale of the Ava Butler trilogy, where every threat converges at once.

Ava Butler has survived a wire, a bomb, a kidnapping, and a cancer diagnosis. She's finally free of her record deal, building her own label from scratch, and trying — for once — to enjoy her life. Then she finds a body in a tidal pool on Horseshoe Bay, her studio musician turns up murdered, her producer is killed at his desk, and a crime boss with a brass-knuckle approach to contract enforcement locks her in a dressing room.

The body in the bay is just the beginning. As Ava digs into a corrupt resort development that's been greased through permitting by a family of government insiders, she discovers the same criminal network behind the project is also behind the music piracy that's been draining her bank account, the blackmail that destroyed two of her closest collaborators, and the systematic violence that has followed her career from the start. The mastermind is an Irish crime boss named Fagan — and he's been three steps ahead of everyone until now.

Meanwhile: her father's Parkinson's is advancing. Her grandmother's Alzheimer's diagnosis arrives as a shock. The man she loves just proposed and she said no. Her ex-boyfriend is in New York causing chaos. Ginger's biological father has arrived with custody threats and a lawyer. And a championship boxer is being blackmailed into throwing his title fight by the same man who wants Ava dead.

Everything that's been building since Book 1 collides, and Ava has to decide what she's actually made of. Written from Pamela Fagan Hutchins' years living on St. Croix in the USVI. The places are real. The people... she's not going to say.

She survived everything they threw at her. This time, she throws back.

The Ava Butler Series is Part 6 in Hutchins' What Doesn't Kill You Super Series.
