the same energy that characterized Robert Crais’s early Elvis Cole novels…. Gagliano’s Miami is a jittery mix of beautiful women, handsome bad boys, thugs, smugglers, and weird eccentrics, all of whom the author draws with panache. With Jack Vaughn’s first outing, Gagliano makes an auspicious beginning on a promising new series.”

Publishers Weekly

“Anthony Gagliano’s Straits of Fortune combines old school noir with a modern ‘Miami Vice’ edge…. Gagliano pulls out all the stops with one high-octane sequence after another that never lets up until the final page.”

Madison County Herald

“The sort of novel you crave when you have a long, hot, blissfully free afternoon ahead…. Gagliano stuffs Straits with action, and his tough-guy narration never wavers.”

Miami Herald

“The writing is excellent, the plot is unpredictable, the characters are interesting, and the pace is genuinely unrelenting.”

Boca Raton News

“Straits of Fortune is one of those books you want to keep on reading no matter how late it gets…. This is one you don’t want to miss.”
