Accidental P.i.: A Private Investigator's Fifty-year Search for the Facts - Rilegato

David B. Watts, a licensed private investigator for the past four decades, specializes in fraud and business investigations. He and Linda, his wife of 53 years, worked for major law firms and the Fortune 500 in the busy New York to Philadelphia corridor on cases ranging from kickbacks to special security issues. Dave has also worked several murder cases and innumerable insurance fraud matters.  His investigation career began in his twenties as a Plainfield, New Jersey patrolman. He was promoted to detective, then joined the Union County Prosecutor's Office as a County Investigator. These early experiences eventually launched him into a lifetime of investigation work in the private sector. His pursuit of the facts brought him into state and federal courts as well as the board rooms of major corporations. He is respected among his peers and continues to take on special investigations, now in his seventies.Author's Home: Califon, New Jersey

"Fast paced, in-your-face. The gut- wrenching chapters on the Plainfield riot and Officer John Gleason's murder grabbed me. It reads like a novel of police work in the sixties, but it's the real deal."--Private Detective Dennis Harris, Harris Detective Agency, Boston Homicide Division, Retired "An accurate depiction of police work and private investigations. Fraud, corporate greed, murder, sex . . . and all true!" --Private Investigator Robert Higgins, Skylands Detective Agency, Sergeant, New Jersey State Police, Retired "Master investigator becomes master storyteller. Dave had me chuckling, nodding my head. Honest, painful--and even funny." --Private investigator Patrick Chase, Florida Certified Investigator, Captain, Minnesota State Police, Retired
