The murder mystery Cale Dixon and the Moguk Murders introduces Cale Dixon, a suspended detective who is assigned a case just prior to his reinstatement. A South Korean man has been murdered: his mouth stuffed with Moguk rubies and a knife stuck in his back, a weapon that has been passed down though generations of Cho Dynasty women.

Reviewer Charles Asher writes: “Cale Dixon and the Moguk Murders is a stunning work that plums the depths of international criminality, historical conspiracy, and the inner psyche of the noir landscape. Crisscrossing oceans and cultures, author David C. Dagley establishes a shadowy world of scope and complexity, bringing the reader along into lands peopled by the secretive, the dangerous, and the violent – whether it be San Francisco, or the Burmese countryside. The hero of this novel is Cale Dixon, a hardboiled detective in the classic Hammett style … Mr. Dagley executes the detective-novel tone perfectly, bringing traces of Chandler and even Doyle to the work, while as well maintaining the breadth of an international thriller – thus playing out the murders and intrigues on a global scale … I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and I would recommend it to any fan of the genre.”
