MURDER IS MY LIFE – BY David O'Callaghan

ABOUT THIS BOOK

This book is Dave’s first endeavor into writing a full-length book. The book spans from 1970 to the present. This book deals with his career with the Chicago Police Department and the effects of crime on victims and their loved ones, as well as the impact on detectives and prosecutors. There are numerous true stories including many Homicide Investigations. Even though these cases involved a lot of sadness, a bit of light-hearted moments are intertwined with the stories in the book. Dave hopes the book contains pleasurable reading but also wishes to carry messages with his writings.
