Undercover

Lisa McMann

Simon Pulse, 2008

When life is not a dream
Adolescents beware: Lisa McMann knows you. She knows your insecurities. She knows how you might look so together, yet be so screwed up. This is why Wake rang so true for me--because I remember what it was like to be 15, 16, 17. It wasn't a lovely, dreamy existence; ...

Under and Alone: The True Story of the Undercover Agent Who Infiltrated America's Most Violent Outlaw ...

William Queen

Great Story
This is a great story, what surprised me was that it was not one sided at all. He even recalls a time when police were, lets just say, not acting as they should be. Great read, took only a few days, I recommend it for anyone, law enforcement or not.

St. Martin's Press, 2004

Highly entertaining...can't wait for more Maddie Springer!
