Rating:  Summary: If you got this far, buy the book. Review: I'm ordinarily not a fan of this genre, and I'd never have read this one by some unheralded author if it weren't for a twist of fate that made me do it. But I was surprised, no, shocked that I was presented with a character that was both smart and likeable, palpaply real and just quirky enough. The humor was gentle and well-timed. The narrative voice was developed, sure, and invisible. And the story was ...well, I won't spoil it for you. If you like mysteries, gobble this one up. If you don't, just read it anyway.
Rating:  Summary: fast paced and intriguing Review: what do you get when you take murder, visions of the virgin mary, and a reporter who refuses to shrug off these events as coincidence? you get Second Advent, featuring nick bertetto as a stay-at-home dad/reporter who, while trying to keep his marriage intact, is also trying to solve the string of murders in small town clinton, indiana and their connection to sightings of mary.if you like your men of mystery sensitive, caring, and damn smart, then you'll love nick! tony perona is an up and coming author in the genre - i know we'll be seeing more of him.
Rating:  Summary: Stay-at-home-dad Review: When protagonist Nick Bertetto isn't out solving mysteries, he's a stay-at-home dad. Remember when Nora Ephron wrote about "a sensitive, intelligent man who doesn't mind a little cellulite"? Well, I don't know about the cellulite, but Nick is sensitive and intelligent and manly without being macho. In other words, you'll enjoy being in his company, you'll enjoy the other characters you meet along the way, and you'll enjoy the tour of Indianapolis and environs that Nick takes you on. I hope this turns into a series!
