greed - Softcover

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Brian Brady spent his career on both sides of the badge - and both inform every page he writes. A native San Francisco author, Brady served across four police departments in two states over a distinguished law enforcement career that took him from street-level detective work to gang units, homicide investigations, and ultimately a Police Chief's retirement from the City of Novato in the San Francisco Bay Area. On the corporate security side, he held senior positions at NBC Universal and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art - institutions that gave him a front-row seat to a different kind of crime, a different kind of city, and a different kind of story.That combination - police procedural reality and sharp cultural observation - is the foundation of his fiction. Brady's Fog City Stories trilogy brings a team of San Francisco Police Department Homicide Inspectors to life across three novels - Oh, What a Tangled Web, Hiding in Plain Sight, and Greed - each drawing on his deep familiarity with San Francisco's neighborhoods, institutions, and the specific texture of urban homicide investigation. The characters are based on real people, shaped by real experiences, and placed inside plots that move with the weight of genuine investigative knowledge.In Still Waters Run Deep, Brady steps away from San Francisco entirely to write about the law enforcement world most crime fiction ignores: rural America. Casper, Wyoming detectives Jim Rawlings and Maria Ortiz operate without the resources of any major metropolitan department - and Brady renders that reality with the respect and accuracy it has long deserved. The novel is dedicated to the men and women who police rural America: under-budgeted, under-staffed, and showing up every day regardless.Brady lives in Sonoma County with his wife Gerry - close enough to San Francisco to remember it clearly, far enough away to write about it honestly.He can be reached at brian@goldengatetales.com and at www.goldengatetales.com, where he welcomes reader feedback and shares updates on work currently in progress.
