American Heroes Press has released its first book, Nogales Crossing, David Jones. More information on the book, a police procedural, is available at http://www.police-writers.com/jones.html
After Four years as a Police Constable in England, David R. Jones joined the Los Angeles Police Department. As an officer on the street and a detective working undercover, he learned the ins and outs of the narcotics trade. His wealth of experience on the street comes through in his vivid writing. David retired after 21 years to pursue writing, acting and golf. David lives in southern Arizona with his wife Mary. David R. Jones is the author of I Do Solemnly Swear and Nogales Crossing.
According to the book description of Nogales Crossing, “Shackleford, Perez and Driscoll had two things in common: they attended the same LAPD academy class fifteen years ago, and worked diligently and honestly at their assignments. However, the lives of these conscientious cops are turned upside down as the Department and Feds try to destroy the trio. Although the actions against the protagonists seem unjust and unreasonable, readers may have to modify their sense of morality to accept the volatile decision they make. Victims of their conspiracy include members of a Mexican drug cartel importing cocaine into Nogales, Arizona. Unfortunately, the cartel extends into unexpected areas of LA, putting family members in jeopardy. NOGALES CROSSING takes the reader on a roller coaster of emotions as a series of breath-taking incidents culminates in an explosive event.”
