"Sky's Shadow", by Ted Galdi


Tommy Dapino, book #1

Tommy is a firefighter goes on a vigilante mission after the death of his sister under mysterious circumstances. Tommy is tough and an essentially charismatic individual but he is an ex-felon right out of Attica now he needs to con his way around, get a copy of his sister’s case and set out to take the killer down….this story tells us the trail he took to achieve his goal….

You have to leave your believes behind to enjoy this unbelievable story if not you will think it totally ridiculous….The protagonist is somewhat a jerk who acts like nothing fizzes him, manipulates a young FBI Agent to help him. He hits obstacles one after the other but manages to come out alright….

All this said in a very choppy ways: short sentences and short chapters, the dialogue is even more ratatata adding intensity and excitement for us to keep flipping the pages for the outcome…will Tommy succeed or fail? Action galore.

I wasn’t sure at first if I liked this story where helping veterans get organs someone needed to die and where did Tommy’s sister fit in the equation, yes, we do have an answer…I will assure that when this fast and furious story exploded mid way I was totally hooked. This is one story you need to take one bite at a time to enjoy.

In whole: “Sky’s Shadow” is an enjoyable read

Thank you, Mr. Galdi for providing me with a copy of your book
