The Doctor's Dog
Throughout all the years of writing briefs and motions, Richard F. Venti always said that someday, when he retired and had the time, he wanted to write a novel. Having just turned a youthful sixty, he has now completed three of them over the past four years.
In his first work, Henry’s Wife, Venti introduced us to thirty-one-year-old former-schoolteacher-turned-PI, Dean Cello. This was Cello’s first big case, the one that in the fledgling investigator’s own eyes made him feel worthy of being called a PI. Then came The Doctor’s Dog, another mystery featuring the likable Boston-based investigator. Most recently, in a departure from the PI novels, Venti penned The Purgatory Fugitive, a fast-paced novel of suspense written in the third person omniscient.
He lives in the Merrimack Valley of Massachusetts with his wife and their dog, Higgins.
