Jack Bertolino is back!

Mia by John Lansing

Mia is available now!

Mia is the origin story of retired inspector Jack Bertolino as a young undercover, NYPD narco-busting detective and his relationship with Mia, his confidential informant.

Mia is dark, gritty and dangerous. A standout as a standalone, but even better as a prequel to the outstanding Jack Bertolino series. Readers get to see the man Bertolino was and how he became the man he is today. A must read for Bertolino fans!”
—Matt Coyle, bestselling author of the Rick Cahill crime series

“The plotting is tight, the dialogue is convincing, and Mia is eminently capable and surprisingly upright, making this novel an entertaining read.”
Kirkus Reviews

Additional praise for Mia:

Mia is the way thrillers ought to read: unforgettable characters, non-stop action, and explosive scenes. Jack Bertolino is a perfect hero—relentless and smart; and Mia is thoroughly intriguing. I highly recommend it.”
—Terry Shames, Macavity Award-winning author of Perilous Waters

“Readers of John Lansing’s Mia better grab their G-suits because he duck-tapes you into a luge on page one and sends you straight down the face of the Matterhorn. A breathless and welcome prequel to the Jack Bertolino series.”
—Craig Faustus Buck, award-winning author of Go Down Hard

“Jack Bertolino’s back—so slide over, Reacher and Bosch and Keller. Fans already familiar with this series will know exactly what I’m talking about. John Lansing has created such a believable, formidable hero that readers will be left wanting more Bertolino for years to come. This high-octane prequel is so filled with action and unexpected turns, you won’t be able to put it down.” 
Dietrich Kalteis, best-selling author and winner of the Crime Writers of Canada Award of Excellence for Best Crime Novel

“John Lansing blurs the lines between good and evil, victim and villain in this complex, high-octane thriller. Crime writing at its best. I read this in a day.”
—Lisa Towles, award winning author of Terror Bay

Believe me, we are all learning the hard way.

Okay, I bought a used paperback at a charity shop in the village, by Clive Cussler. The next thing I know, I'm getting ads on my phone home page for Clive Cussler paperbacks. (And I bought the one in the village with cash.)
