I retired in 1994, after a 20-year career in investigations and law enforcement in New York State. My wife Faith and I moved to Las Vegas, Nevada, shortly afterward.

I wrote my first novel, The Morgue, in 1996; and currently have seven mystery/thrillers published.

My debut in non-fiction, Policing Las Vegas – A History of Law Enforcement in Southern Nevada, was released in April 2005. It covers the evolution of law enforcement in Las Vegas and Clark County from the city’s establishment in 1905. My second non-fiction, The Battle for Las Vegas – The Law versus the Mob, tells the story of the Tony Spilotro era in Las Vegas from 1971 thru 1986. It was released in July 2006 and was a Computer Times Editor’s Selection in October 2006. My latest non-fiction is CULLOTTA, the biography of former Chicago and Las Vegas mobster Frank Cullotta.

I am a contributing writer to Action! Magazine and Examiner.com. I also host a show on Blog talk radio and serve as a consultant to the Vegas Mob Tour.

I'm an active member of the Henderson Writers Group, Public Safety Writers Association, Sisters in Crime, and the Wizards of Words.
