Sales have picked up a bit on the
Detective's Guide. Some good reviews and word of mouth, I think. Nevertheless, I would like to give it a bit more visibility. So, starting Monday morning (February 22) the kindle version of the book goes on a one-week sale for 99 cents, a big discount from the regular price of $2.99. Please pass the word on this along to police and prosecutors you know.
I also send out free review copies of the paperback edition of the Detective's Guide (and
360 Federal Crimes)
to folks with a blog or similar Internet presence who are willing to read and review the books.
Email me if you are interested.
Here's a description of the Detective's Guide from
Amazon:
A Detective’s Guide to Interrogation Law is the most complete and authoritative manual on the law of interrogation ever written for law enforcement officers. It covers—in plain language, and with illustrative case examples—every important legal principle.
