Product Description
Overturned is the sequel to Michael C. Lee's debut novel, Chandler Park Drive. Readers are re-acquainted to fictional character Denard Blake, a Detroit cop. In Overturned, Denard Blake is investigating the brutal murders of a young Detroit woman and her two small children. The murder investigation intensifies when Blake discovers that the gun that was used to kill the woman and her children was used in a number of other unsolved murders, in and around Detroit. Meanwhile, Thelmon Kirkwood is a convicted felon serving time for drug possession in a federal prison. His wife, Nichelle, is working diligently on his behalf, with the assistance of sultry defense attorney Kathy London, to get his conviction overturned. The story culminates to an explosive ending when all leads in Blake's murder investigations implicate Thelmon Kirkwood.

5.0 out of 5 stars You'll be "Overturned" by what you think to be true!, April 23, 2008
Thelmon is in prison for a drug charge and hoping to get his conviction overturned, thanks to a lawyer his wife hired for him. Nichelle, on the other hand, lonely without her husband, and makes a grave error with a cop she meets in a club. Things get very interesting as well as dangerous when the murders of a young mother and her two children, along with a drug dealer, start pointing to someone in the immediate family.

The second book featuring Detroit cop Denard Blake, "Overturned" is very realistically written by former Detroit cop, Michael C. Lee. You will be surprised as the story takes on twists and turns that you don't see coming. Hard to put down till the last page.

4.0 out of 5 stars Inspiration Book Club, Detroit, MI, March 22, 2008
Overturned is a well written page turner that will envelope you into the story.

Denard Blake, a successful but flawed detective is wonderful in the lead role chasing after the bad guys. Thelmon Kirkwood, the unlucky jail bird who gets into one sticky situation after another captures your sympathy for a person caught up at the wrong place wrong time. Nichelle Kirkwood is a strong leading woman character who experiences turmoil, love and loss.

This is where Michael C. Lee excels at making you care for characters who become deeply embedded in your unconscious.

This book has twists and turns with lots of action that will keep you coming back for more. If you are looking for serious Crime fiction based on some true accounts than you won't go wrong with Michael C. Lee. Check out Chandler Park Drive and don't forget to pick up Overturned!

4.0 out of 5 stars How many guns?, March 15, 2008
By The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers (RAWSISTAZ.com and BlackBookReviews.net) - See all my reviews
In OVERTURNED, Michael C. Lee revisits Denard Blake, a Detroit policeman who is now searching for the killer who murdered a woman and her two children. The murderer set the house on fire with their bodies in it, but an autopsy showed that each of them had been shot before they were burned. Nichelle Kirkwood, the wife of prison inmate, Thelmon Kirkwood, is desperately trying to get her husband released from prison, but circumstantial evidence is pointing toward him as the killer. As others begin to die and ballistics shows the same gun was used, not only in killing the three family members, but also in a cold case from four years ago, the action heats up. How could Thelmon kill anybody while locked up? Does he have a hookup that will allow him to get someone else to do it for him? These questions and many more keep Blake hot on the trail of the killer.

Michael C. Lee has written a fast-paced mystery with more than a few bodies falling. There are many characters but they are developed well enough that it is easy to keep them straight and remember each one. It is action-packed and kept my interest to the thunderous ending. Even when you think you've figured it all out, you find out you don't know the half of it. It was a good book.
