Sotello, Private Investigator
(2002)(The first book in the Action Thrillers series)
A novel by Bernard Lee DeLeo
Jim Sotello, runs a detective agency out of Oakland, California with the help of his college age daughter and son. In the space of a few weeks time, the world he took for granted turns upside down. From an unexpectedly dangerous caseload, threatening his own family's very existence, Sotello weaves his way into a run for the Governor's Office of California on the Republican Party ticket. As he honestly professes his ultra-conservative views, Sotello shockingly enthralls the hearts and minds of the California voting public, making him into an overnight sensation.In Sotello's campaign, he vows to form a steel wall against terrorist infiltration, and out of control illegal immigration across California's porous borders and ports.
His soaring ascent, in the polls, brings his foes scurrying from their holes in an attempt to defeat Sotello, or remove him entirely. Between special interest groups, and foreign sponsored terrorists, Jim Sotello's twelfth hour campaign becomes a roller coaster ride into danger.
Tremendous plot line where a conservative businessman runs for governor of uber liberal California when the front runner steps down at the last minute. The threats and attacks against a strong conservative running for public office are very believable and frightening at the same time. This book could be a prediction of things to come as the "Golden State" becomes increasingly liberal and less tolerant to anything conservative. - Wild Bill53
I am a professional writer with numerous best-sellers, and read quite a lot, but Bernard Lee DeLeo is one of the purest writing talents I have ever had the pleasure of reading - a brilliant writing talent that I can only envy. - James Byron Huggins
