Crime Exploded (A Buck Taylor Novel)

2022 Chanticleer International Book Awards, Finalist, CLUE Book Wards for Suspense, Thriller fiction


A devastating Christmas morning. A state under attack. A relentless investigator racing the clock.
When a series of violent explosions tears through Colorado on Christmas morning, celebration turns instantly to terror. As the death toll climbs and evidence reveals a coordinated, calculated assault, Colorado Bureau of Investigation agent Buck Taylor and his elite team are thrust into the center of a rapidly escalating nightmare.

With the state in chaos and no clear suspect, Buck must determine whether the bombings are the work of a mad bomber, domestic extremists, or a terrorist cell hiding in plain sight. But every new clue only deepens the mystery—and the danger.
Complicating the investigation is an ambitious FBI agent pushing his own theory, even if it means jeopardizing lives and derailing the case. As Buck’s team uncovers shocking truths buried beneath the rubble, one chilling question looms over every step they take: Will there be more attacks?

Perfect for fans of high‑stakes crime thrillers, police procedurals set in the American West, and relentless page‑turners with explosive action, Crime Exploded delivers tension, twists, and a hero you’ll root for until the final page. If you enjoy Harry Bosch, Joe Pickett, or CJ Box‑style Colorado mysteries, this Buck Taylor novel will keep you reading deep into the night.
