The Infantino Files follows private investigator Ray Infantino across two novels. Telegraph Hill (2012) sends Infantino on a case that takes him from Boston to San Francisco, while The Burden of Innocence (2021) deals with questions of wrongful conviction and the difficulty of proving someone’s innocence after the legal system has already made up its mind.

John Nardizzi writes PI fiction grounded in the realities of investigative work. The Infantino Files benefits from authentic procedural detail, and the protagonist feels like a working investigator rather than a fictional superhero. The series rewards readers who appreciate crime fiction rooted in real-world practice.
