Since his introduction in the novel Ditched as Vasily’s love interest, Alejandro Ortega-Cortez has blossomed into a full-fledged main character who shares a lot of screen time with my detective.

In the third episode of the podcast, Chris is joined once more by his best friend to discuss Bewitched, the fifth novel in the Sean Colbeth Investigates series.
