"Breaking Tecumseh's Curse was a delightful read for so many reasons!"
Four Out of Four Stars

"An impressive memoir with something for everyone: history and government, love and marriage, life and death." Kirkus Reviews

What has mystery, romance, humor, action, intrigue and almost a million characters? The survey says: Breaking Tecumseh’s Curse, the novel-like memoir written by Jan Marie and Bob Ritter.

It relates the couple's early years together when Bob was a special agent with the United States Secret Service in Washington, D.C. It’s the first Secret Service book told from a spouse’s perspective. Rich in emotion, Breaking Tecumseh’s Curse is the heartfelt love story of a young couple’s journey through some extraordinary times.

Breaking Tecumseh’s Curse spotlights a dangerous period for the Secret Service—from 1972-1982. During that time, five assassination attempts took place against persons protected by the USSS, more than any other era. The book presents the historic events of the time and a rare insider's look at the Secret Service.

Join Bob Ritter and his fellow agents for fun, adventure and some sorrow too as they try to break Tecumseh’s Curse.
