Welcome

I retired as a U.S. Secret Service Investigative Analyst and was a Crime Analyst for the Buffalo Police Department for 10 years. I'm a passionate advocate for crime and intelligence analysis. I hope my books help everyone better understand the roles of analysts in policing.

The Magic Room: A Crime Pattern Casebook is the first of 5 books in The Crime Pattern Casebooks series. Look for it on Amazon July 2026. The second book in the series, The Curry Connection, will be available October 2026. It was my childhood dream to be a novelist.

Elements of Crime Patterns (Routledge, April 2026) is a reference book/textbook about the elements and variables in crime patterns. It's the book I wish I had as a new analyst in 1997, and it would have been a helpful resource throughout my analyst years.
