—Reader review (Extra Dirty) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
KNOCKOUT (A Holly Hands Mystery) is the explosive first book in a gripping new action-mystery series from #1 bestselling author Mia Gold, whose novels have earned over 5,000 five-star ratings.
Holly Hands, 29, is a single mom, former pro boxer, and now a no-nonsense repo woman surviving in the toughest part of Baltimore. With a sick daughter and mounting medical bills, Holly is willing to do whatever it takes to provide—until a routine repo job ends with a dead body in her trunk.
Now she’s the prime suspect in a murder she didn’t commit. To clear her name, Holly will need every ounce of her street smarts, fighting skills, and determination. The deeper she digs, the more dangerous the trail becomes—and the more she realizes the clock is ticking, not just for her freedom, but for her daughter’s life.
KNOCKOUT is a fast-paced, edge-of-your-seat thriller with a heroine who’s tough, smart, and impossible not to root for. Fans of Janet Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum and Jana DeLeon’s Miss Fortune series will fall in love with Holly Hands.
