Witness Tamping is based upon my tenure as a detective on the Family Services Team from 2004 to 2014. Although the characters in that book are fictional, cases in the book are based upon my years of experience investigating sexual assaults, child abuse, and domestic violence. The rest of my books come from my connection to West Michigan and my family's travels out of the country, as well as my deep understanding of people arising out of my years as an investigator.ver menos
