The City of Tucson, Arizona, a mere 60 miles from the Mexican border, served as a high traffic point for international drug dealers. As Lieutenant of the Metropolitan Area Narcotics Squad, and later as Captain of the Special Investigation Division, Thomas J. (Tom) Nichols’ police career spanned the era of the growth of the Mexican drug cartels and the accompanying war on drugs. He brings with him the inside view of that war: a time of violence, deception, and greed. Now those stories are available to readers through the seamless, easy to follow, and believable characters in his works of police docu-dramas, espionage, and international intrigue.
