A Patriots' Dream
Kent Thompson
What happened to our nation? The United States of America that the founding fathers created was driven by much different values than those that permeate the government and much of society today.
John Mogen, a conservative retiree and true patriot in every sense of the word, can no longer sit back and watch his beloved country slide further and further away from what it was intended to be. Determined to make a positive change, he decides to write a fictional book about restoring the Constitution. However, when he shares his idea with his brother-in-law, Carl, he sets into motion a much larger chain of events than he ever could have imagined.
Brothers in arms
Gerald Knutson
This book is a rather wide array of experience, 2 autobiographies. The fiction will show itself, the experience can be believed or not. It doesn’t make any difference to me. I lived it, although you can doubt if you like I wish it happened to someone else! The autobiographies are the truth. Both men went through too much bull shit for either story to be a lie. I met Jack Fair about 30 years ago. There was a 5-mile dead zone with no phone service. Bell telephone lines ended three miles east. The store had the only public phone. That’s how I met Jack Zair.
The Teardrop Shotgun
Jeff Mara
I’m not a writer, so to speak. Surely not a Hemmingway or a Steinbeck, but I’m compelled to write and tell my story. I believe it’s a story worth telling, to fellow dreams, outdoor enthusiasts, who love adventure. (hunting and fishing)

One Night in October: A stunning new profile of the California Zodiac Executioner, his motive revealed
Gerald Gregory Doane
In October 1969 I was one of twenty-five or more San Francisco Police Department (SFPD) officers who responded to the murder of a Yellow Cab driver in the Presidio Heights district of San Francisco. Investigators later attributed the murder to the so-called Zodiac killer.
Long after my police career, I began studying five Zodiac cases, his phone calls, and his written communications. I concluded that the motive in four of the murder and attempted murder cases consisting of Lake Herman, Blue Rock Springs, Lake Berryessa, and the Presidio Heights district in San Francisco, involving a total of seven victims, were cases of displaced or redirected aggression. Follow my leads and come to your own conclusion.

Tactic Teams Talk: Police Managing Crises
Gerald Gregory Doane
In the Fall of 1973, Detective Harvey Schlossberg, PhD, and Lt. Frank Bolz, both New York Police Department (NYPD) visionaries, brought their magic to the San Francisco Police Department’s (SFPD) Police Academy, at my request, so that we mere mortals could learn the trade of dealing with terrorists, criminal hostage-takers, and your average human in some sort of mind-bending crisis.
It has taken me the bulk of fifty years to put together the teachings of Harvey, Frank, and many, many others (including my own teaching, writing and field experiences) into a three subject treatise called, TACTICS – TEAMS – TALK, Police Managing Crises.
The first subject is TACTICS. Here, we outline some basic principles of police crises planning to include strategies; information gathering; establishing objectives, policies, protocols; and resources. Then we outline individual tactics designed to protect responders from harm in their responses.

Gerald Gregory Doane
A Police Thriller that takes place in the city by the bay in the early 70's.
“The sky was dark, but the city’s sodium overhead lighting and the advertising neon illuminated the streets as if it were twilight. Distracted as I opened the driver’s side door of my unmarked cruiser, I saw a flash of light, felt something stinging my face, then heard a loud bang. I dropped to the ground, laid there momentarily, then low crawled to the back of my cruiser for more cover. I waited, maybe fifteen seconds while I composed myself, made a hasty look-see, then duckwalked back to the driver’s side door and reached inside for the radio mike, ‘Central-300, shots fired at me, Vallejo and Stockton.’
