A Memoir of a Scotland Yard Detective

Where the Evidence Takes Us

"When Scott Payne was growing up, he never envisioned a future that included what happened on Halloween night 2019. Out in the woods of Georgia, he tried desperately to save a goat from being sacrificed in a ritual by a group of neo-Nazis without revealing that he was actually an undercover agent. Now, this retired FBI agent reveals how and why he infiltrated the rapidly growing American Nazi group The Base. Known as the 'Hillbilly Donnie Brasco,' Payne was guided through some of the most terrifying and risky assignments in the FBI's history by his devotion to his family and his Christian faith. [His book] is an unflinching look at one of biggest threats in national security, as well as an inspiring memoir from an American hero"

How I Went Undercover to Expose America's Nazis

Code Name: Pale Horse

When pressure peaks, the leaders who prevail are not the loudest or the most forceful. They are the most prepared, most precise, and most trusted. Learn how to steady a team, move people from resistance to decisive action, and protect performance when the stakes are highest. In Shaping Chaos, West Point graduate Kyle Vowinkel distills hard-won lessons from the Army and the FBI’s elite Hostage Rescue Team (HRT) and Crisis Negotiation Unit (CNU) into a cohesive leadership operating system. One of only five people in FBI history to serve on both HRT and CNU, Vowinkel takes readers inside missions where failure could be fatal, and translates those disciplines into tools for boardrooms, crises, and high-consequence environments. Shaping Chaos alternates between vivid stories and concrete, repeatable tools These stories drop readers into real-world operations, from the Boston Marathon bombing manhunt to one of the FBI’s most complex kidnapping operations and other critical incidents. Even-numbered chapters then convert those experiences into practices leaders can apply immediately, anchored in Vowinkel’s Prime, Predict, Prevail framework: <ul> <li>Prime: Steady yourself and the team, unify intent, and clarify ownership and decision lanes before time compresses your options.</li> <li>Predict: Read the human, strategic, and emotional terrain, define best, most likely, and worst outcomes, map key levers and pathways, and set triggers and responses before the moment cuts off your options.</li> <li>Prevail: Design clear plans of action, advance through friction with agility, and execute decisively when conditions align.</li> </ul> When the storm arrives, leaders rarely rise to the occasion. They fall to their level of preparation. Shaping Chaos helps you build that foundation now, so you can lead with unflinching clarity, calm courage, and disciplined execution when it matters most.

Leadership Lessons Forged in the FBI's Most Dangerous Operations

Shaping Chaos

“A stunning job of reporting.”—&nbsp;New York Times Book ReviewUpdated with new content, #1 New York Times bestselling author Jess Walter’s classic work that chronicles the 1992 confrontation at Ruby Ridge between Randy Weaver and federal law enforcement—a tragic eleven-day siege that became a symbol of government overreach and fueled the rise of America’s radical right.On the last hot day of summer in 1992, gunfire cracked over a rocky knob in northern Idaho, just south of the Canadian border. By the next day three people were dead, and a small war was joined, pitting the full might of federal law enforcement against one well-armed family. Drawing on thousands of pages of documents and extensive interviews with members of Randy Weaver’s family, government insiders, and others, Jess Walter traces the paths that led the Weavers to their confrontation with federal agents and led the government to take extreme and unprecedented measures. But as the past thirty years has shown, the standoff at Ruby Ridge would not be an isolated incident.This is the story of what happened there: the tragic and unlikely series of events that destroyed a family, ended FBI careers, and left a nation increasingly attuned to the dangers of unchecked federal power. It is also the story of the racism, religious zealotry, paranoia, fierce hatred of government, and violence that has become increasingly visible across American society.

Insider Stories and Tales from the Private Security Industry

Security Confidential

Finalist for the Killer Nashville Silver Falchion award in the nonfiction category.Back in 1982, Frankie and Annette wouldn't have survived ten minutes on this beach. Not before either being robbed, brutally assaulted, or forced to flee in terror from a violent lunatic amped to the gills on angel dust.Incredibly, the seaside sands were still much safer than the anarchic downtown streets of Oceanside, California. Little wonder the street cops' unofficial motto for the town was, "Where the Debris Meets the Sea."Are you in the mood for another utterly insensitive, grotesquely funny, and brutally honest stroll down memory alley? In this sequel to the first volume of his well-received memoirs, "Service With a Sneer," retired homicide detective and author John J. Lamb shares a new collection of insightful and riveting tales from his remarkable police career.Lamb takes the reader back four decades and to his days as a young street cop with the Oceanside Police Department. Nowadays, the city is an upscale tourist destination, drawing visitors from around the globe. Back then, it was one of the most violent municipalities in California, with a sky-high homicide rate. Armed street robberies were commonplace, vicious assaults occurred on an almost daily basis, street gang violence was the norm, and people were murdered for the flimsiest of reasons.But for Lamb, a self-confessed adrenaline junkie, policing the pitiless streets of Oceanside - and dealing with the feral human inhabitants - was the most fun he ever had with his clothes on. In this second volume of his anecdotal memoirs, we follow his continuing journey as he transitions from a tough and competent street cop to a skilled CSI, whose exceptional performance begins to attract the attention of homicide detectives.As with the first volume, the book begins with a warning that "SNAGs" (Sensitive New Age Guys/Gals) should avoid reading any further to avoid upset and severe emotional trauma. Next comes a glossary of deliciously ironic and enlightening California cop jargon from the early 1980s. Learn the meanings of "Screen Test", "H.U.A.", and "Bus Therapy," to name just a few.Lamb's stories include: The closest he ever came in his life to winning the "Darwin Award."Tales of savage hand-to-hand combat with berserk and violent PCP users in an era before Tasers and other "less lethal" measures existed.How he deliberately violated every element of hostage negotiation protocols in order to get a barricaded gunman to surrender to police.The tense account of how he pulled a drowned toddler from a swimming pool and used CPR to restore the child to life.His discovery of a vicious and life-threatening attack that led to the rescue of two young women and the arrest of a brutal sexual predator.And how he came to regret prematurely stopping a man from repeatedly punching a sanctimonious fellow police officer.As always, Lamb's stories are riveting, thought-provoking, occasionally revolting, educational, surreal, heartrending, and often rich with macabre humor.Above all, they are true.

Fifty-Two Years a Policeman

For more than two decades, Jimmy Dennedy, a cop's cop, served the people of New York City as a member of the NYPD. First as a uniformed officer working the streets in some of the toughest crime ridden neighborhoods in his home borough of Brooklyn. Then in the NYPD narcotics division, dealing with the worst of the worst who were infesting the streets of the city with the poison that destroyed lives. And finally as a detective in the NYPD-FBI Joint Terrorist Task Force, doing just what the name says, chasing down those whose mission was to destroy the way of life of New Yorkers.When he retired from law enforcement, Dennedy found a different calling. He established a prison ministry. For 25 years, in both Otisville Federal Penitentiary, and Shawangunk State Prison he practiced his ministry touching the soul and conscience of men like those he locked up during his days in the NYPD. For those he counseled with prison time still to be served, he turned their lives around so they could do their time in peace. And for those who had the good fortune of being released, his guidance provided the foundation upon which they built productive, crime free lives.The story of Jimmy's journey from Brooklyn's toughest cop to his prison ministry needed to be shared with the world. Hard Guys Cry tells that story!
