Hurt Machine by Reed Farrel Coleman

4.0

Moses Praeger may be dying. He has been diagnosed with stomach cancer. His daughter, Sarah, is getting married and he doesn't want her to know until after the wedding. When his ex-wife, Carmella, approaches him about finding out who killed her sister, Alma, Moe jumps at the chance to take his mind off his troubles. Nothing is as it appears when Moe begins investigating. Why did Alma and her partner, both EMTs for the FDNY walk away from a man who had a stroke and leave him to die? Why was no one suing the City over their dereliction of duty? Moe has spent his career as a P.I. being lucky, but his luck appears to have run out. Another great entry in the Moe Praeger series that will leave the reader wanting more.
