Requirements: EPUB reader, 664 Kb | Version: Retail
Overview: Michael Van Rooy was born in Kamloops, BC and grew up in Winnipeg. He wrote for documentaries, magazines, and newspapers; and in his diverse career worked as a teacher, a newspaper editor, a bartender, a cheesemaker and a casino dealer, and a restaurant manager and freelance writer. His writing is fast-paced, highly entertaining, and exciting with a mix of quirky humour and dark, dry wit.

Genre: Mystery/Thriller
Your Friendly Neighborhood Criminal (Monty Haaviko #2)
The truth frequently hurts and rarely sets you free. Ex-criminal Montgomery "Monty" Haaviko would prefer to be known as the friendly neighborhood daycare provider. Unfortunately, it's his criminal past (and his extensive bag of tricks of the trade) that brings him to the attention of Marie Blue Duck, a Canadian activist who wants Monty to set up a route to smuggle refugees into the US. Monty’s skeptical of her offer, but the money is too good to refuse. Even his wife, Claire, who ensures Monty stays on the straight and narrow, thinks he should take the job…. Monty's carefully laid plans quickly go off the rails when he squares off against local thug Samantha Richot, who tries to seize the route. Their power struggle rapidly escalates into kidnapping, torture, and a daring and highly explosive stand-off. Just when Monty thinks he might just have it all under control, his old jailhouse crony, Hershel "Smiley" Wiebe, shows up on his doorstep. Monty is more than suspicious of Smiley's motives, but figures if you should keep old friends close, you should keep old cons even closer.
A Criminal to Remember (Monty Haaviko #3)
This third instalment in the Monty Haaviko series takes a darker tone from the previous two episodes. Monty is tangled in political intrigue, blackmail, corruption, and a long-standing feud in which he becomes a pawn. At the same time, a serial killer threatens the love of Monty’s life - his wife Claire, and soon, escape seems impossible. Monty is approached by a wealthy businessman to run for an elected position on the city’s new Police Commission. As an ex-con, this is something Monty finds intensely amusing. However, he soon discovers his backer has a long-standing rivalry with another businessman who is backing his own patsy for the Commission, and who stands to gain a fortune if his man wins. When Claire starts getting mysterious gifts and flowers, Monty learns about a serial killer the police have been tracking unsuccessfully for many years. He is torn between leaving town and giving up the Police Commission, or staying and risking Claire’s life. But the killer is one who, once he sets his sights on his victims, will stop at nothing to make them his.
