About this listen
Tradecraft all around us!
Throughout history, black market goods, weapons, narcotics, and other assets have been transported across borders within rural and metropolitan areas of every nation. A lucrative business, operated by thousands of sophisticated criminal organizations, it is responsible for death, destruction, and ripping apart families and nations.
Its reliance is on supply and demand, and it operates through a system of carefully designed and deployed clandestine measures throughout the world. Its focal point - profit!
This book gives you the insight into the dynamic nature of these clandestine operations and how the author identifies, apprehends, and helps lock away smugglers, even using them to train law enforcement agents throughout the world.
The next time you see a headline that a large shipment of narcotics was seized or that a terrorist cell was identified and apprehended on the highways, you'll have the inside track into the work conducted by those who protect the innocent public.
It is a guide for civilians, military, intelligence, and law enforcement personnel worldwide in understanding these unique operations.

Story
Getting someone to tell the truth is an essential skill that very few people possess. In the boardroom, the classroom, or our own homes, every day we interact with others and try to get the truth from them. People are often untruthful out of fear of negative consequences associated with divulging information. But if a person is made to forget the long-term outcomes, he or she can be influenced to disclose sensitive information that's being withheld.

Must Read for Cops
Of course, Shawn doesn’t give away too many specific tactics for roadside investigations, partly to not tip his hand to smugglers. Nonetheless, this book was a great insight into the world of criminal interdiction. I almost always prefer audiobooks narrated by the author, and Shawn does a nice job with this one.
