Pedestal

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. So, it hires a prominent private eye to get that proof. He doesn't. The story is shelved and everyone moves on. Including the killers. But the dogged freelancer 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. *** "Another winner from the prolific De Maria, who this time mixes the mob, sex and big-time football in a toxic stew!" (John Crudele, NEW YORK POST) "A master of thriller dialogue." (WASHINGTON INDEPENDENT REVIEW OF BOOKS) "While De Maria may have been an award-winning financial reporter, he's an awfully good fiction writer as well." (NAPLES DAILY NEWS) "What 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."
