Samuel E. Stone

He was born and educated in San Francisco, California. His understanding and insight to the emotional and psychological depths of fiction create a realistic bonding effect upon his readers.


His literary works have received five star reviews in the United States and Five Crown ratings in the United Kingdom. Samuel E. Stone is a retired police sergeant. His career in law enforcement spanned a quarter of a century, during which time he served as a patrol officer and a detective. He received a number of commendations and recognitions, including "Police Officer of the Year," for 1982.During his years as a detective he served two tours of undercover duty, working deep cover. The first tour involved his infiltrating an element of organized crime and bringing down a topless club empire, which was involved in the distribution of drugs and other criminal activities. The second tour  involved his portraying a burned-out Vietnam veteran who owned and operated a surplus store. That operation resulted in three hundred and thirty-six-drug related arrests, including major drug dealers and the seizure of numerous fully automatic weapons including machine guns.He had many accomplishments during his career including: becoming the first law enforcement officer in the state of Washington to obtain a search warrant by phone, (telephonic search warrants have since become a common practice in law enforcement); writing a manual on the Landlord Tenant Act, which is being used by law enforcement and prosecutors as a training manual; clearing more than one hundred and twenty-five burglaries through the investigation and arrest of a burglary ring; and the apprehending of a rape and murder suspect single-handedly.

During the course of his career, he was involved in supervising both the patrol and detective divisions, including all forms of operations from routine patrol to hostage negotiations to murder investigations.After retiring from the force, Samuel found himself with an identity crisis.
He was for years, “The Sarge,” and his world was focused around his police work. He began writing rekindling the passion he had for literature from his school days. In 1999, Samuel’s first book “Shades,” became a Best Selling Ebook and earned Sam the title of being a Best Selling Mystery Author. Sam has been writing ever since. He also worked as a private detective for a Law Firm for 15 years broadening his insight into human nature.
