Jim Doherty’s first novel, AN OBSCURE GRAVE, is now out in
eBook and trade paperback formats with the hardback coming very soon. Available

way of several short stories.
Amazon Synopisis:
A beautiful
victim. An elusive criminal. A part time policeman. Three pieces of the mystery
that is Jim Doherty's AN OBSCURE GRAVE.
Dan Sullivan, UC Berkeley undergrad and part-time cop, is working the tip-line for a missing-persons case that is getting national attention. DeeDee Merryweather, beautiful Cal co-ed, has disappeared. The prevailing theory is that she's been abducted. But one of the tipsters, an anonymous caller claiming psychic powers, believes it's a murder, because, she says, she's sensed DeeDee's corpse buried in a makeshift tomb.
If she's right, the Berkeley Police and the FBI are on the wrong track. But will a part-time reservist be able to put them on the right one that leads to DeeDee's obscure grave? And, from there, to her killer?
Jim Doherty, author of JUST THE FACTS: TRUE TALES OF COPS AND CRIMINALS, crafts a challenging mystery within this spot on police procedural. An Obscure Grave, his first novel, was a finalist for a CWA Debut Dagger Award, competing with hundreds of entries from all over the world.
