Policing the streets is less precarious than the intrigue and drama behind the balusters and bulletproof glass of a police station. The interaction with the public can be the escape our men and women in blue need to avoid the administrative bureaucracy that controls their actions and often dictates what they can and cannot do.

Howard Hamilton Ride-Along: COWARDS, CROOKS, AND WARRIORS

Family man and police officer Howard Hamilton happily works the quiet night shift in the Orchard Hills community of California. One evening, he is in a situation where he might have used his firearm but froze, which is when he starts to question his qualifications as a Police Officer. Then, the unthinkable happens: a rookie officer is killed.
When the department struggles with their first on-duty death in ten years, the new chief transfers HH to day watch—where the bad luck really begins. Within days, another officer has a heart attack. Then, HH’s good friend accidently kills an officer while hunting. HH becomes unwittingly embroiled in a drug-dealing cop’s arrest. The OHPD is in a state of duress!
While the department swirls in the windstorm of deaths, HH discovers the body of Ginny, sister to the largest business owner in town. She has been brutally slain in a ritualistic murder, which brings in LAPD’s occult expert. HH wants nothing more than to return to the usual night shift and his family, but first, he has to work with his nemesis to unravel a horrendous crime in a city once lauded for its peace and quiet.

Book signing

On May 28, (Memorial Day weekend) we conducted a very successful book signing at the Barnes and Noble In San Tan Valley Arizona. Overwhelmed with friends and strangers, J. DELADURANTEY autographed books that included COWARDS, CROOK, AND WARRIORS and TWENTY-THREE MINUTES and his latest release, AVAILABLE TIME. The bookstore sold out in four hours and B&N management said it was the largest author aligning they have ever sponsored. Additional signings are planned in the near future at your local B&N. Watch for it.
