Sometimes, I deliberately put off picking up crime fiction for fear that: 1) I will have nightmares about it, and 2) It will happen to me.
But Chasing An ATM Schemer, the first book in The Fraud Haunter series by Racquel Sarah A. Castro, has been calling, and I thought it didn’t look like it would be triggering any uncalled-for paranoia.
A story that hits close to home in a time when fraud crimes are prevalent and easy to fall victim too. The cat-and-mouse chase adds excitement to the story's romanticized heist. Looking forward to read more of the main character's exploits soon.
A fast paced intro to what seems to be a promising expansive series.
Gabe Jacinto has received fame and is called the Fraud Hunter. ATM schemes are just one of the many fraudulent (estafa) acts in the country. So, looking forward to more of that. Hopefully, the next books in the series will expound how Jacinto garnered popularity and how his intel sources grew.
"If you have been wanting to jump into the brewing Filipino crime fic craze but is a bit intimidated by the longer novels, start with Chasing an ATM Schemer (The Fraud Haunter Book 1) by Racquel Sarah A. Castro." Continue reading our review here.
