As a cold case columnist with Blue Line magazine, my book #UNDERCOVER was featured in the book review section of the August/September 2021 issue called “Off the Shelf.” It was authored by John MANS. Excerpt below:
“So skillfully and articulately written, this book will transport the reader inside the undercover operations, allowing them to feel as if they were in that moment themselves. Undercover is an absolute fantastic read.”
John MANS, retired Detective-Sergeant.
