Of Friends and Others: A Memoir

By J. A. Sanborn

In this memoir, Chief Robert Connor, now retired, reviews his life and experience as the Augusta Police Chief at a time when he was faced with a series of burglaries in the Glendale Lake District. The Lake District, a part of the city of Augusta, boasted expensive cottages and docks along the shores of the Lake. The burglaries appeared, at first, as possible teenage pranks, because all the items stolen from the cottages were female undergarments. Connor and his detectives realized their mistake when the raids expanded to the vicious murder of a young woman.An intense investigation discovered evidence, which pointed to several suspects, one of whom was Rob Connor's mentor and close friend, Roy Hepburn, who lived in the District. Rob's childhood friend, Abner Smith, was an FBI agent who told him that an important FBI informant had given information implicating Hepburn as the killer, but could not divulge the name of the informant.Stymied by the lack of progress to solve the crimes, Connor devised a dangerous, illegal sting to capture his friend before he could murder again.
