Crime in Mind

Learn what makes the villain tick; the cops chase him and the fallout that follows.

Make your Villains pop with realism, your law enforcement officials zing with authority, and your writing dance with the realism of equipment and regulations.

Do you wonder what goes through your villain's mind?  Where he comes from?
What he looks like? What he's thinking?

Do you wonder what your law enforcement hero/heroine should act like?  What
type of equipment do they wear? What type of gun do they carry?  What type of regulations laws and procedures bind them?

What does a cop bring home and how does his or her family cope? What’s it really like to watch from behind the scenes and deal with the emotional and physical scars of life as a cop?

Well, now you can find out.

Crime in Mind gives the answers not only from real life experience but also from a writer’s perspective.
