In Jean Sheldon's new book fictional detective Kerry Grant fights real crime—identity theft

(PRLEAP.COM) Albuquerque, NM. (May 2007) Bast Press releases Identity Murder by Jean Sheldon, the first title in the Chicago Police Detective Kerry Grant Series. The gutsy crime fighter is a cop and a computer guru, ready to chase cyber criminals on their own turf, whether on land or on line.

Identity theft is the fastest growing crime in the US, and though Jean’s 256-page book is fiction, the information and tips on fighting identity theft and online crime are real. The last six pages list warnings, explain phishing, pharming and other frauds, and give web and physical addresses to find help or report crimes.

As police and government agencies nationwide prepare for a twenty-first century show down, Kerry takes her expertise undercover with the mob. Her job is to teach eager cyber thugs the latest tricks and scams while checking out their current involvement in online crime. The detective starts a romantic relationship, renews a friendship, and deals with her own demons, while she continues to chase virtual criminals who fire real bullets.
