"Pipeline" is a book about real experiences, based on fictional characters.  In "Pipeline" permission to use true names and accounts of events for some of the characters was obtained.  On the other hand, "Hidden In Plain Sight" is purely fictional and bares no resemblence to anyone in particular.

Private investigator Dan Sanchez is not licensed to carry a concealed weapon, the government doesn't need to know if he owns a firearm.  Besides, in New Mexico it's only a petty misdemeanor to be caught carrying a weapon concealed.  Throughout his exploitations, Dan preferred to work alone, as a cop and as a P.I.  His responsibility ends with work, not people.  Dan is devoted to his family, but the suspicious death of his daughter has taken him to the depths of his sole he hadn't experienced since Vietnam, as a Marine.

One investigation took him into the inner-sanctum of street gangs, where he was confronted with handguns pointing at him from several directions, at once.  After being searched, he was escorted through a gauntlet of protectors, and then led into a 'place' where he met with "the man" who was closely monitoring a multi-defendant federal death penalty case.  The purpose of Dan's visit... to request permission to interview members of a particular street gang, which he ultimately got.  Although, he never joined a street gang, growing up in Los Angeles, Dan knew the consequences had he proceeded without permission.  Some considered Dan a gang expert; He did not.


Dan has also worked in classified security areas, where the protection of our nations most closely-guarded secrets is performed.  In contrast, as a PI for the defense, he has investigated matters involving Homeland Security.  Throughout it all, he has maintained a sense of neutrality, which is why he gets hired by certain attorney's.

I have completed "Pipeline" which is being edited.  And if I am fortunate enough to complete my research for "Hidden In Plain Sight," perhaps I will finish that in the Fall, as well!
