THE FIX IS IN! THE MOB BLACKMAILS TWO MURDEROUS SPORTS ICONS. *** ANOTHER WINNER FROM THE PROLIFIC DE MARIA, WHO THIS TIME MIXES THE MOB, SEX AND BIG-TIME FOOTBALL IN A TOXIC STEW! IF YOU LIKE HARD-BOILED ACTION, MEMORABLE VILLAINS AND TWISTY PLOTS, THE JAKE SCARNE THRILLERS NEVER DISAPPOINT!€ (John Crudele, New York Post); €œA LAWRENCE DE MARIA TITLE GIVES YOU MORE BANG FOR YOUR BUCK THAN JUST ABOUT ANYTHING IN THE BOOK MARKETPLACE TODAY.€ (Florida Weekly); €œA MASTER OF THRILLER DIALOGUE.€ (Washington Independent Review of Books); €œWHILE DE MARIA MAY HAVE BEEN AN AWARD-WINNING FINANCIAL REPORTER, HE'S AN AWFULLY GOOD FICTION WRITER AS WELL.€ (Naples Daily News) *** WHY IS A MAN IN JAIL FOR A MURDER COMMITTED BY TWO SPORTS SUPERSTARS? A media giant has the story but is afraid to publish without ironclad proof. They hire a dogged investigator to get that proof. Meanwhile, the freelance reporter who uncovered the injustice can€t leave it alone.
All hell breaks loose, revealing a plot far worse than anyone imagined!
If you like non-stop action combined with great detective work (and relish seeing bad guys get their comeuppance), then PEDESTAL fills the bill. And it€s only a click away! *** €œWhat is really almost beyond belief is how easily De Maria has transitioned from the dry world of financial reporting to the wild and lavish world of novel writing.€ (COLLIER CITIZEN)
