Detective Kenneth Mains On Why He Decided To Tell His Story In UNSOLVED NO MORE
The reason I decided to write this book is because I believe in doing the right thing. All too many times I see victims families not have any rights when it comes to cold cases. Law enforcement will tell them that they are still working the case and will not provide them with the opportunity to have a fresh set of eyes look at the case. As a veteran of law enforcement, I understand that the reason we do this is to not jeopardize the case in … [Read more...]

The Author & the Hitman: Dennis Griffin on the Collaboration That Brought THE RISE AND FALL OF A ‘CASINO’ MOBSTER
Ten years ago I met former mobster Frank Cullotta. We got together in Las Vegas to discuss the possibility of me writing Frank’s biography. It was an odd experience to say the least and the following year I wrote an article about it. As Frank and I await the publication of our third book together, I thought it would be appropriate to post that article again. I hope you find it informative and possibly amusing. In the spring of 2006, if anyone … [Read more...]
