In this episode, author and retired Massachusetts state trooper and investigator James Redfearn discusses his novel, THE RISING AT ROXBURY CROSSING. The conversation with host Jordan Rich explores a volatile, but neglected period, when the Boston Police Department went on strike in the post WWI era. Redfearn also discusses why readers are fascinated by books and stories about policemen and policewomen, and how being a law enforcement professional provides an unusual perspective for writing his books.
