A Case of Infatuation Synopsis
Crime Beat Reporter Mitch Malone's rules are
simple: He never lets the blood and guts he covers bother him. He always works
alone. And he hates kids. Mitch breaks all three rules when he unwittingly agrees to smuggle a potential
witness out of a suburban Michigan home while police investigate a mob-style hit
that's left two dead bodies. Mitch sends his intern (a real hottie, but
nonetheless an interloper) to interview neighbors, hoping to throw her off, but
when he finds the pint-sized survivor the killer overlooked, he decides she
might be helpful. When the FBI accuses him of the murder, Mitch goes into
hiding with the bombshell intern who doesn't talk and the precocious
preschooler. Mitch works his contacts to regain his freedom from his roommates
only to find they each hold keys to a bizarre story of disappearances,
terrorists and the perfect hamburger recipe.

Meredith, author of No Sanctuary
“A
Case of Infatuation was refreshingly fun, yet still suspenseful. I absolutely
loved the main character, newspaper reporter Mitch Malone. The writer did such
a good job of making him a likable guy, despite his quirks, that I was in his
corner, and by the end of the novel, wanted to read more.“
“The plot moves along at a good pace, revealing just enough details and facts to keep you from putting the book down. The writer has a unique writing style, reminiscent of the Hollywood film noir of the 40's and 50's in keeping with the plot and characters, and kept me entertained and reading along until the very end.”
“This is an excellent first novel by W.S. Gager, and I can't wait to see what crazy antics and trouble Mitch gets himself into in the next one.”
