NUMBER ONE BESTSELLING MYSTERY WINNER OF THE JOHN D. MacDONALD FICTION AWARD
When an environmental activist freezes to death in August in Miami, it can only be a case for Jake Lassiter.
Miami lawyer Jake Lassiter has a dangerous conflict of interest. He's sleeping with Gina Florio...and defending her mobster husband in court for the wrongful death of an environmental activist. The homicidal Nick Florio has hatched a scheme deep in the Florida Everglades that oozes corruption, blood, and money. One false move, and Jake will be gator bait.
Living by his own rules, the savvy Lassiter battles a world of deceit, perversity and mayhem to risk body and soul for truth, justice and the Lassiter Way.
PRAISE FOR MORTAL SIN
Irreverent...genuinely clever...great fun. - New York Times Book Review
Take one part John Grisham, two parts Carl Hiaasen, throw in a dash of John D. MacDonald, and voila! You've got Mortal Sin. - Tulsa World
Fun...the action is non-stop. - Chicago Tribune
Engaging...lively...colorful. The plot races with mounting tension. - Miami Herald
Levine has written a superbly crafted and finely focused thriller. 'Mortal Sin' is well deserving of its John D. MacDonald Award and certainly lives up to its dedication page to MacDonald and its strong debt to Travis McGee. - Amazon 5-star review
The characters are well drawn, the dialogue crisp and often very funny, the story slick and fast with enough twists, turns and escapes to satisfy any mystery/adventure fan. Can't miss with this one. - Amazon 5-star review
