THE BIG GAMBLE

MIKE FARICY

Mike Faricy’s The Big Gamble is a sure-fire winner in the long-established and winning Dev Haskell Private Investigator series. Faricy writes with a sure and confident hand emblematic of Hiaasen, Sanford, and other luminaries writing in the P.I and mystery field.

The Big Gamble is populated with crooks, gangsters, attractive women, police officers, office mates, and one heroic dog. Dev is asked to investigate the apparent suicide of a woman he knew in high school. At first, it looks like any other suicide and the police classify it as such and close the case. But Dev sees inconsistencies that lead him to dig deep into the Minnesota winter and find out why a happy and outgoing young woman would take her life.

The Big Gamble is another winner in this long-running series that readers will hope continues until Dev is too old to pursue criminals and love.
