It’s a while since Luke Murphy was last here on Linda’s Book Bag, when we stayed in together to chat about two of Luke’s books, Kiss and Tell and Finders Keepers. Today, I’m privileged to be able to share details of Luke’s latest book The Cradle Will Fall.

Let’s find out more:

The Cradle Will Fall

A rogue cop…

When the FBI refuses to acknowledge the disappearance of Agent Matt Stone during a covert investigation overseas, Detective Charlene Taylor has no choice but to go on the hunt. The Ukraine can be unforgiving to outsiders, but the detective has no idea just how deep the corruption runs.

A renegade PI…

There is only one person Charlene can turn to. Trusted friend and former leg-breaker, Calvin Watters, is a protector, and the only man who can go head-to-head with the danger that awaits them. Charlene must put her faith in Calvin, and hope that, together, they can find a way to uncover the truth surrounding the missing Americans.

Can Charlene and Calvin team up one more time to overcome an evil syndicate of corrupt cops, and a government conspiracy covered-up by an entire country?

Doesn’t that sound exciting? It’s not just me that thinks so either. Here’s what other readers have said:

“Luke Murphy’s The Cradle Will Fall is one part thriller, one part social commentary, and one part international caper and one part. Brutish, funny, compelling and revelatory all at once.”—Anthony Bidulka, winner of the 2023 Best Crime Novel Award.

“The Cradle Will Fall is a well-researched potpourri of mystery, danger and intrigue—a fast read that sticks with you long after you turned the last page.”—Cheryl Kaye Tardif, bestselling author of Children of the Fog.

“Don’t miss this entertaining read in a unique setting of a cold environment.”—Dianna T. Benson, award-winning and international bestselling author of The Hidden Son.
