Reminiscent of the late Robert B. Parker, Faricy’s tightly woven Dev Haskell series is penned with a delightful sense of humor and even some romance.
Entertainment is the name of the game as back-slapping, corner-cutting, babe magnet Dev Haskell interacts with such quirky characters as local crime lord Tubby Gustafson, ‘Fat Freddie’ Zimmerman, former NFL tight end Luscious Dixon, exotic dancer Swindle Lawless, and gorgeous Heidi Bauer. You can read Dev Haskell novels in any order.
“Great Plot. Believable characters, leaving you waiting for the next book in the series.”
“Pour yourself an enjoyable beverage, get comfortable, and enjoy Dev Haskell. You’ll not regret it.”
US Marshal Jack Dillon is sent to Dublin to escort a prisoner back to the US. Things don’t go exactly as planned, and trouble ensues.
US Marshall Jack Dillon is eventually assigned to the Dublin Police Force, An Garda Síochána, and permanently stationed in Dublin. Things take an entertaining turn from there, with Marshal Dillon and his partner, Detective Inspector Paddy Suel, dealing with a variety of situations.
Faricy’s Jack Dillon Dublin Tales series was originally released under the pen name Patrick Emmett. The Jack Dillon Dublin Tales series consists of humorous tales set in Dublin, Ireland, and can be read in any order.
“I love a good mystery and I love a good book series. The Jack Dillon Dublin Tales series have ticked both those boxes for me.”
“Great! I read this series every chance I get. I enjoy the entire series. Not long-winded, straight to the point, you relate to the characters. You won’t be disappointed. You’ll be glad you read it!”
NEW RELEASE
The latest book series features Yucky Yates:
Faricy’s Yucky Yates series involves former DEA agent, Russell ‘Yucky’ Yates. He left the DEA and is now heading Yates Services, a Private Investigation firm. The Yucky Yates series was initiated in 2025 and is similar to the Dev Haskell and Jack Dillon series in that it will consist of humorous, entertaining crime fiction tales.
Faricy’s Corridor Man series contains ten works that should be read in order.
The Corridor Man series is more gritty and violent than Faricy’s other work. Disbarred attorney Bobby Custer is released from prison and gradually returns to the legal game. He’s neurotic, psychopathic, narcissistic, unprincipled, and always charming.
The series was originally released under the pen name Nick James.

“I loved this series so much. I knew each book was going to be great, and it was. I love this authors series.”A Humorous Cozy Mystery Thriller Comedy of Errors
Faricy’s Hotshot series consists of five zany, delightfully entertaining crime fiction tales that can be read in any order.
“Mike Faricy does it again. Filled with twists and turns, I loved it. As usual hit out of the park with yet another great story.”
“A joy to read and easy to imagine yourself in the center of action. I love it!”
Mike’s Faricy’s novels are filled with oddballs we’re all curious about but wisely prefer to keep at a distance. His characters serve not so much as an example as they do a warning. None of them will be saving the world from terrorism, international banking conspiracies, or coups to take over the government. His characters inhabit a world just below the surface of polite society. The circumstances they find themselves in are usually due to their own bad decisions, but then bad decisions make for interesting stories.
Originally from Saint Paul, Minnesota, Mike Faricy spends six months of the year in the saintly city and six months in Dublin, Ireland. Thanks for taking the time, and be sure to tell 2-300 of your closest friends.
