“Crimes of Mike Recket” is a neo-noir detective story that subverts the conventions of the genre with humor and subtlety. Mike Recket, played by Nicolas Lea, (V, Continuum, The X-Files) is an unemployed realtor who seduces and defrauds writer Leslie Klemper (played by Gabrielle Rose–Robson Arms, Sisters & Brothers, The Sweet Hereafter). He steals her heart and the only thing of value she has: her house. “Crimes Of Mike Recket” is a behaviorally – based police procedural about family fallout, Police methodology, and sociopathic tendencies. Agam Darshi plays Mike’s wife.
