Labriola gets ‘Dangerous’

Private investigator Dr. David Brooks finds himself the target of Kamikazes and pirates in “Dangerous Triangle,” the new book by Dr. Jerry Labriola ($24.95, Strong Books). Amazon

The Kamikazes seek revenge after Brooks was instrumental in stopping a sarin attack on the world. They join forces with pirates in attempting to complete the murderous mission of sarin master¬mind Shoko Asahara.

As the three sides close in, Brooks continues his oceanic lectures, this time featuring O.J. Simpson, Sacco-Vanzetti and Charles Lindbergh in the talks.

This is Labriola’s 18th book. Brooks is a recurring character in his novels. The idea for the current story “came from our talks with some Japanese passengers on several of our 50 ocean cruises, plus being alerted to pirate ships off the coast of Somalia,” Labriola said.

Labriola was a pediatrician in Naugatuck for 35 years before retiring in 1994. A former forensic pathologist in the U.S. Navy, he dabbled in politics before turning to writing.
