description: Acclaimed author Harry Shannon makes his mystery debut with the hard-boiled novel, "Memorial Day," featuring an unlikely amateur detective who has as many problems of his own as the people he's investigating. Psychologist Mick Callahan was a television star until women, booze, and his own ego brought him down. Now the former Navy SEAL washout is a man on a mission -- to get his life back on track. He reluctantly accepts a job hosting a radio talk show near his little hometown of Dry Wells, Nevada. When a troubled young caller is murdered, Callahan decides to investigate. But when the mystery girl turns out to be the daughter of the richest man in the county, Mick is compelled to uncover the dying town's sordid secrets, wrestle with his own memories of an abusive childhood -- and literally run for his life on the climactic Memorial Day. Harry Shannon lives in Studio City, California.
