The lights are hot, the game is rigged, and somebody’s running a hustle that could wreck more than a season. In Sam Razor, Private Investigator: His Second Case – The Backcourt Blackmailer, Carlo Armenise drags readers into a world of million-dollar secrets and midcourt betrayal — a place where egos are large, tempers are short, and the body count is creeping up the stats sheet.

Forget everything you thought you knew about sports scandals. This isn’t a documentary. It’s a crime novel in high gear — and Razor’s about to play offense.

The Case: A Star Athlete. A Deadly Secret. A Clock Ticking Fast.

When NBA phenom Rickie Wagner is accused of throwing games for the Mexican cartel, Tigers team owner Phil Redman brings in the one man who doesn’t flinch: Sam Razor, the grizzled PI with a mouth full of sarcasm and a knack for sniffing out trouble.

Razor goes undercover as head of security. What does he find?

A bitter head coach. A scheming brother. A seductive ex-Playmate wife.

Everyone’s lying, and one of them is planning a blackmail.

And Sam’s the only guy who’s crazy enough to find out who.
