Bombshell is the FOURTH novel in the humorous and suspenseful Dev Haskell mystery series.

THE JOB: PROTECT A RAGTAG CREW OF GORGEOUS ROLLER DERBY GIRLS FROM A STALKER. WHAT COULD GO WRONG?

"Dev is at it again. Put the coffee on, and plan to stay up late, this is a real page turner." -The Irish Gazette

Dysfunctional, bumbling, crazy babe-magnet Dev Haskell, Private Investigator, has just landed the job of a lifetime. He'll be the envy of every guy with a heartbeat: Dev is hired to provide security for a team of beautiful English roller derby stars (with stage names like Harlotte Davidson and Helen Killer). Though he'd rather be standing guard in the shower room, he finds himself in a world of trouble when he's mistaken for the stalker-turned-killer he's been tracking.

With an attorney who drinks too much and a team of females ready to kill him, Dev must prove his innocence, all the while finding the real killer and protecting himself against the wiles of yet another irresistible and dangerous woman.

Review

Where to begin, Dev is at it again. Put the coffee on, and plan to stay up late, this is a real page turner. - The Irish Gazette

What a delight. Hooked from the first page. - Crime Stories

Not sure who is crazier, author Mike Faricy or his character, Dev Haskell. Suffice to say, Dev provides, a lot of laughs, non-stop action and a good deal of enjoyment. - Locked Up

Another hit for Mike Faricy. Roller Derby?! Really? What fun. Reading Faricy's Dev Haskell series is always a romp - and always brings me a smile if not a belly laugh. NatureRabbi

This is one, of several, Dev Haskell novels. Dev is a private investigator that has a way with the ladies and getting into crazy situations. He is a guy you will either love, or love to hate. -

The Mystical world of Book Reviews

The book is fast, furious in places, replete with up-scale drinking, dining, several bedroom scrums and ultimately, a logical, satisfying solution. The novel, supplied to this reviewer free of charge, probably won't win any literary prizes, but it's fun and well worth its cover price. - Carl Brookins

From the Author

First let me thank two real derby stars, Pinkey Gomez of the Vice City Rollers and Queen Sixela of the Minnesota Roller Girls for making the time. They were a lot of help and fun and they provided me with a look into a world I knew very little about. Only Dev would think watching a bunch of beautiful women couldn't possibly present any problems. Of course like all things Dev's involved in, it takes a beautiful woman to finally pull his feet from the fire. Along the way there are more than a few mis-adventures. Without giving anything away, and although it's drawn a lot of laughs and rolls of the eyes, the ending is based on a real life occurrence. Of course only in St. Paul, or in this instance, only with Dev Haskell.

Roller Derby murder mayhem

June 13, 2015

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

St. Paul PI Dev Haskell is a poor judge of women but a good judge of booze. His date Carol jilts him for a Frenchman, Nicholas. Meanwhile he's hired to protect a visiting roller derby team, The Bombshells. When he is framed for a roller derby queen murder, even his cop buddy, Vice Lieutenant, Aaron LaZelle, and Louie, an alcoholic public defender, about to be debarred, can't bail him out. Detective Manning is out for Dev's head. He thinks he's nailed Dev to the wall this time. Nicholas is a bad penny, and suddenly it's case of crossed cases. When Dev again runs afoul of the law, there's only so much Dev's friends can do to keep him out of trouble this time. Once again Dev has to save himself by solving the crime. Some madcap adventures and romps in and out of the bedroom help to solve this murder mystery.

(There are some typos: martini's, for example. I wasn't keeping track, the book was fast-paced, but I still noted them. Though I enjoyed this book, it felt rushed, less crafted than Faricy's other Dev Haskell books.

Fun, fast paced

August 24, 2015

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I was looking for a very light read after reading my last novel, and this was just the ticket! Fun, fast paced, an easy read. Even a little squeemish in parts. This book started out at a fast pace, and I wondered if the author would be able to keep it up. So many books in this genre can start off at a gallop, but slow down to a crawl. But, nope, the pace continued right through to the end. I found Dev Haskell to be a really good hearted likeable guy, although it seems a lot of these reviewers saw him as somewhat of a sexist jerk. I totally disagree! If anything, poor Mr. Haskell seemed to be getting it right and left from all the women in the story although, for the most part, I don't think he minded it too much! For example, there is his so called girlfriend at the beginning of the story, Carol. Now there is a so-called "jerk" for you! These women are bossy and just order him around!! But, again, Dev just goes with the flow. In short, I would recommend this book as a light hearted diversion. I have downloaded several other Dev Haskell books and will be reading them as well, peppered in with my heavier reading. Good job, Mr. Faricy!!

This is number 4 in the series of Dev Haskell series. Once again Dev finds himself in trouble with the police when he takes on a new case to make extra money. He is now looking into and protecting a roller derby team. One of the female members of the team has been getting death threats a long with a middle finger. Once again Dev finds himself the main suspect when bad things happen on Dev's watch and once again its up to him to solve the crimes. This is a light hearted, fun read. Its a quick book. There are a few laugh out loud moments in here too.

Rollin' Along

September 13, 2017

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Dev Haskell, hapless P.I., is back in another wacky mystery from talented Mike Faricy. This time he's working with American roller derby babes and their British counterparts. What starts out as a hunt for whoever is sending grisly items meant to scare one of the performers quickly turns into a murder investigation, and Dev is smack in the middle of it.

Faricy has given us another clever mystery, along with humorous dialogue, a tight plot, and compelling characters. Each of the Dev Haskell novels is a standalone story, but they just keep getting better. Recommended.

Not much Roller Derby but a heck of an entertaining book

September 12, 2013

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I have to admit I was looking forward to a book featuring Roller Derby and again like in so many other books just teases with the subject. However, this book redeemed itself with Mike Faricy introducing me to Dev Haskell. Private investigator, bon vivant, ladies man and fence straddler with the police he is to say the least one likeable entertaining character. Ladies and police both have a love hate relationship with him. In this case he gets the enviable assignment of protecting a visiting British roller Derby team until one charges him with lascivious acts all the while a perverse stalker may be on the stalk. Girlfriends, police friends meanwhile help him or try to get him out of the way. The Roller Derby slant could've been any sport team or women's group. What's great about this is watching Dev Haskell get in and out of messes and that goes cover to cover.Reminds me of a Jim Rockford type. I look forward to more adventures with Dev Haskell and so, I bet, will you.

Dev Does It Again - And Fumbles As Always

May 22, 2015

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

At this point I think we can agree that Devlin Haskell is an imbecile and a poor P.I., but a lovable character none the less. The plot lines in all of these books are getting repetitive and a bit too familiar but fun to read none the less. I feel I know the recurring characters well (I'm in lust with Heidi) and Dev has a loser's charm that is hard to resist. Once again however the ending seems rushed and predictable. I had it down to one of two people by chapter four and solved by chapter seven. Still, I find the wacky situations Dev gets himself into to be a fun read and his relationships, albeit strained, with the recurring cast of oddballs and cops to be worthy of my time. Don't take it seriously and you might just enjoy it. Like life itself. - Happy Reading - Sasquatch

Not worth finishing... made it to chapter 25

December 29, 2013

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I just couldn't stand it anymore when I got to Chapter 25 and I'd really been pushing myself to stick with it long before that point. The book is obviously intended for men who find porn, daily drunkenness, and casual sex interesting. I don't fit any of those 4 requirements. To top it off, it is poorly written.

Dev Is Once Again Fingered for Murder

May 14, 2015

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

This is the fifth Dev Haskell book that I've read, and I've thoroughly enjoyed all of them. Once again, Dev is drawn to women who can get him in trouble. In this case it's a roller derby team from England. He's hired to protect the featured player because she has been receiving threats, mostly severed middle fingers. The usual cast of characters is also in the story, and Dev (as always) manages to get himself into plenty of trouble.

The plot is good, the dialog is often funny. If you like private investigator novels with humor, I think you'll enjoy reading books in this series. And so far, Mr. Faricy has written eleven of them.
