Light and fast read about a celebrated undercover FBI agent and the cases he worked. Fast-paced and fascinating, the stories of Mike McGowan and his squad busting mob families and drug cartels are numerous. It takes serious training, guts, and focus to do what he did. Despite the interesting cases, the book suffered from a lack of an editor and was repetitive in some points and had several misspellings and typos. Would have liked to see more depth on some of the cases but realize some info is probably classified. Fun read anyway.

Easy read - the writing is very straightforward. Fascinating scenarios, but it really doesn't convey the drama and tension that must have gone with the job. Nonetheless, thank you for your service.

The overall isn’t so bad. The writing style is a simple mix of informal and somewhat formal. A lot of short summaries of past stings and experiences. It isn’t something I would read again or venture into. Sometimes, the real thing is more bored than fiction genres. It is a matter of perspective. If I think this author could hit off if he focuses on one sting that heart beating tense. It might be a hit but this book isn’t much...it was good to read but that’s it.

This was such a great book on so many levels. It gives you an inside look on some of the things that make up living as an agent and if you’re in a law enforcement family, there are many enlightening moments.

Had the honor of meeting the author in person and let me tell you, his stories are endless and he is beyond brilliant.

This was a good read (lol). I enjoyed getting the inside scoop in the life of a very busy, and kind of crazy, FBI Agent.
