IF you are Truly Open-Minded, This Book Educates & Informs Quickly and Without Fluff

At only 140 pages, this book may seem "short" - but when the answer is so simple - short is appropriate.

The tip was good: the informant knew who was picking up the load, what type of car would be used, the date it was due to arrive, and where it was going. The dealers lived in a neighboring county. The sheriff filed his report with the Colorado Bureau of Investigation...
