(Segura, Alex) Alex Segura is a novelist and comic book writer. He is the author of the Pete Fernandez Miami Mysteries, which include Silent City, and Down the Darkest Street. He has also written a number of comic books, including the best-selling and critically acclaimed Archie Meets Kiss storyline, the “Occupy Riverdale” story, Archie Meets Ramones and the upcoming The Archies one-shot. His latest book in the Pete Fernandez Miami Mystery Series is Dangerous Ends (Polis Books). Pete Fernandez has settled into an easy, if somewhat boring life as a P.I..  When his partner Kathy Bentley approaches him with a potential new client, Pete balks. Not because he doesn’t need the money, but because the case involves Gaspar Varela, a former Miami police officer serving a life sentence for the murder of his wife – one of the most infamous crimes in Miami history. The client? None other than Varela’s daughter, Maya, who’s doggedly supported her father’s claims of innocence. Fast-paced, hardboiled and surprising, Dangerous Ends pushes Pete Fernandez into a battle with a deadlier, more complex threat, as he tries to shake off the demons haunting Miami’s own, sordid past.
