Nick Delvecchio
Created by Robert Randisi

Classic P.I. fiction. With the works.

Robert Randisi's hot dog-loving private eye NICK DELVECCHIO hails from BrooklynSure, his buddiestell him things are greener on the other side of the bridge, but Nick keeps it real with an office onon Sacket Street, just a short walk from the Brooklyn Bridge.

Of Nick's first appearance in novel form, 1987's No Exit From Brooklyn, Dean Koontz said "This is the hard-boiled detective story as it ought to be." You won't get any disagreement from me. This is primo stuff.

Randisi, of course, is the founder of The Private Eye Writers of America, and is also responsible for Manhattan-based P.I. Miles Jacoby and New York Racing Commission investigator Henry Po. They're all equally good, and equally recommended.
