"I smiled outwardly while chasing serial killers, working on criminal cases, keeping innocent people out of jail, and dealing with matters of national security, all while combating my own personal demons.

As the years have gone on, I felt as though, just maybe, what I've gone through and what I've learned from these experiences can help others who may be going through something similar." -- Page [4] cover.
