The Dark Mirror (A Mike Faraday Mystery Book 1)

â€œThe atmosphere is always first rateâ€ â€“ Publishers Weekly

Mike Faraday is a P.I. out of the best tradition: salt of the earth, hardworking, a little rough around the edges, but smart as a whip.

When he gets a phone call from a nervous potential client, he thought the case would just be routine.

Then a silenced gun cuts down his client.

Soon, Faraday becomes embroiled in a trail of murder and violence, the likes of which he has never seen before.

Suddenly the case becomes part of a much bigger picture, one that has the potential to get Faraday killed.

Fortunately, being shot at is something Faraday is more than used to.

Despite the fact that corrupt cops run rampant through the LAPD, Faraday finds an ally in Captain Tucker, an apple munching, nose for the truth police chief, as they search for the answers to the mystery surrounding the clientâ€™s murder and the subsequent bodies that seem to line up the more they investigate.

The Dark Mirror is a fast-moving crime thriller and the first to feature Mike Faraday, the gritty detective who makes his living the hard way in downtown L.A. Faradayâ€™s sardonic humor and way with the ladies lend an authenticity to this story and the mystery only gets more and more twisted the more Faraday discovers.
