I highly recommend it." --Meg Gardiner, author of the UNSUB series "If you want your crime fiction to ring true, keep FBI Myths and Misconceptions within reach. Informative and entertaining, it's an excellent guide by Retired Agent Jerri Williams."-- Rick Mofina, thriller author and former crime reporter About the Author Jerri Williams, a retired FBI special agent, jokes that she writes crime fiction in an attempt to relive her glory days. After 26 years with the Bureau specializing in major economic fraud and corruption investigations, she called on her professional encounters with scams and schemers to write Pay To Play and Greedy Givers, her FBI Philadelphia Corruption Squad series. FBI Myths and Misconceptions: A Manual for Armchair Detectives was inspired by Jerri's true crime and history podcast FBI Retired Case File Review.
