Reviews

“Gagliano is a welcome and powerful new voice in the Florida crime scene, deftly gene-splicing Mike Hammer and Miami Vice as he takes the beach by storm. Only complaint: I’m left hanging for the follow-up.” - - Tim Dorsey, author of Hurricane Punch

“Straits of Fortune is intense, exciting, gritty, smooth, compelling and extremely satisfying. You’ll want more from Gagliano.” - Armchair Interviews

“In this MEMORABLY CRISP DEBUT, Mr. Gagliano tough-talks his way through a plausibly noir narrative rich with the requisite heat and duplicity.” - New York Times

“This novel should establish Gagliano as the newest of Florida noir writers.” - Boca Raton News

“Straits of Fortune is a ripping good Florida yarn. It’s a safe bet that the many fans of the rest of the Florida crime pantheon will add Gagliano to their list of must-reads.” - Booklist (starred review)

“It’s fast-paced, down-and-dirty escapist grit lit, easily swallowed in one sitting.” - Miami Herald
