Crime and Baseball Collide in Mike Gallagher’s New Murder Mystery
Anthem, Ariz. (PRWEB) August 01, 2014 -- In his new crime thriller, “The Diamond Deception” (published by AuthorHouse), Mike Gallagher tells the story of an FBI agent who goes undercover into the world of Major League Baseball to find out why people are being killed as a team travels around the country.
When FBI Agent Pete Dobbins is assigned to investigate three murders, in three different cities – all of which are connected by ballistics evidence – he uncovers a conspiracy of criminal activity. Now he must go undercover in an organization that is believed to be beyond reproach.
Dobbins, a former minor league baseball star, discovers that all of the murders have occurred while the Arizona Sidewinders were in those cities. He determines that he must go undercover as himself attempting a baseball comeback.
The stakes are raised when the main suspect exploits Dobbins’ vulnerability: his lovely and irreverent wife, Trish, who is in the late stages of a difficult pregnancy. Along the way, Dobbins discovers a defense lawyer with a shocking secret, fights for his life with a hired assassin, collaborates with a beautiful U.S. attorney, tries to help a wrongly convicted man win his freedom and improvises a variety of solutions to heart-pounding situations that could blow up his investigation and destroy everything he holds precious.
Gallagher says, “It is a thrilling read with action, plot twists, interesting characters, life threatening situations and a dynamic chase sequence with law enforcement trying to capture the villains who have taken hostages.”
