The Last Of Maggie
(2026)(The first book in the Derry Murders: Out of Jurisdiction series)
A novel by Gerald Hansen
Two time zones. Same body count.
DI Liam McLaughlin thought he’d left murder behind in Derry. The body found in a field under a full moon was bad enough—savaged, staged, and whispered about as something not quite human. But when McLaughlin travels to Egypt for a long-overdue holiday with his teenage daughter, death isn't finished with him yet.
On a Nile cruise crowded with international tourists, he crosses paths with a group of mature students from Derry. When their charismatic lecturer, Dr. Maggie McCracken, is found dead during a nighttime visit to an ancient temple, McLaughlin is suddenly hunting a killer on foreign soil—alone.
Out of his depth and out of his jurisdiction, McLaughlin turns to his team back home—D’Arcy, Lyons, Hawkins and Cahill—who continue digging into the Derry case while quietly pulling apart the secrets of Maggie’s students.
Two investigations. One hidden truth.
Dark, twisty, and laced with sharp Irish wit, OUT OF JURISDICTION: THE LAST OF MAGGIE launches a bold new international branch of the bestselling Derry Murder Mysteries.
Genre: Mystery
