A vivid, true-life tale of service, survival and sacrifice
This gripping memoir vividly recounts Al Moreno's rise as a gifted and fearless Los Angeles police officer, surviving gangs and homicidal situations in brutal urban war zones as he strove to achieve his personal and professional dreams. Packed with unforgettable scenes of both beauty and despair, it culminates in his vocal stand against corruption within the L.A.P.D., and the political retribution that ensued--a dirty internal investigation that unleashed the murderous vendetta of a violent ex-con from the Aryan Brotherhood.

Based on the author's real-life experiences, including those as an undercover agent infiltrating radical groups intent on overthrowing the United States government, No Gun, No Badge vividly recounts the diverse and dangerous career of L.A.P.D.'s Matt Perez during some of the most brutal years of crime in Los Angeles. It presents a provocative, often harrowing story, beginning with the foundational experiences from Matt's childhood through the teenage years that helped to mold his personality and eventually steer him into the dangerous pit of law enforcement and survival.

Mythology, Mystery, and a MonsterIt's October 1920. On Floodwood Pond, deep in the heart of the Adirondacks, two scientist argue as they paddle in search of long-lost Native American artifacts. They are both members of the prestigious Strabo society, but that's where their similarity ends. Anthony Cardonas is a rigidly self-righteous old-school explorer with political ambitions who becomes increasingly frustrated with the starry-eyed mysticism of his younger companion, Alistair Wulver. The animosity between them escalates into violence in the trackless wilderness, and a murder triggers an unstoppable chain of events. By the early 1960s a werewolf is terrorizing sedate, suburban Westchester County, New York, prompting Strabo's leadership to hire an intrepid female professor and world-class crossbow competitor named Artemis Fletcher to track down the beast. But all is not what it seems, and a greater pursuit unfolds in a breathless track from New York City across the Adirondacks to the high Himalayas and ancient temples of Kyoto Japan.
