Hurtful Truths T G Joffrion

Veteran State Police investigator, Lieutenant Travis "Tag" Gaspard, after a week with his new love interest in Key West, has decided that retirement from fighting crime is imminent. However, a phone call from the head of Louisiana State Police postpones his immediate departure from the agency. The Special Investigations lieutenant is tasked with assisting a local sheriff's office in a murder probe, one that involves the death of a fellow trooper's wife. As "Tag" enters the ongoing investigation two things become readily apparent. First, he totally disagrees with the direction of the investigation, which causes an uncompromising relationship with the local cops. And secondly, he's caught up in a political power struggle that meanders from Baton Rouge all the way to Washington, D. C. His seemingly abrasive relationships with other sections of the law enforcement community, combined with political roadblocks that hinder the truth, present its own set of unique challenges as the investigation unfolds. Follow the story as the author chronicles a south Louisiana police investigation that begins with a small town homicide and ends with national security ramifications.
