Frozen Shield: Alaska Cover-Up

Rating:
Summary: Fire & Ice
Review: Mangieri's account of crime and corruption in the Far North, circa mid 1970s, is compelling. This book brings to mind the nonfiction of Peter Maas, author of Serpico and The Valachi Papers. However, Mangieri's work has a sharper edge, simply by virtue of the fact that it is based on his personal experiences and is told in his own words.

Summary: Alaska State Troopers
Review: The Alaska State Troopers are involved in the bugging of home, and business computers, killings of innocent individuals, (including tourist), buggings of telephones-public, and private, disappearances of individuals in many areas of the state, and other criminal activities, to name a few. I know a friend who turned his badge in because of these illegal activities. Because he did not want to be a part of these illegal activities.

Summary: Real Cold
Review: When by-the-book meets good-ol-boy. And you thought this only happened in the South! Mangieri's book is not over-the-top,it involves real police work in real police situations (and everything that involves).
Honest men are hard to find, but you've found one here. I can't wait to see the movie!
