Anthony Award Finalist: A skip tracer chases an embezzler to
Florida—and finds herself entangled with bikers and the IRS—in
this thriller “packed with humor” (Booklist). With her
low-level law-enforcement career on the rocks, it’s
make-it-or-break-it time for zaftig Loretta Kovacs. She’s been
assigned to the ragtag Parole Violators Search Unit, a.k.a. the Jump
Squad. All her buttons are pushed when she goes undercover as a
desperate dieter at a Florida fat farm in order to nab an embezzler
who’s a perfect size 2. But untangling the mysteries surrounding
this case is going to be harder than passing up a pastry . . .
“Bruno’s characters are more than just quirky dressing for the
plot . . . It moves fast and furious, but along the way his
characters’ struggles with their own doubts and failings anchor the
reader to them.” —The Nashville Banner “A divertingly comic
entertainment with a bittersweet bite.” —Kirkus Reviews
“Devil’s Food is good, grainy crime writing, a little bit like New
Jersey’s answer to Elmore Leonard.” —The Advocate (Greenwich,
CT)
