Dark Daze & Foggy Nights shows insight into the mind of a police investigator when dealing with a complex case that delves into the horrific serial rapes of many women. The reader will learn the traumatic consequences that will lead this officer into the darkest time of his life as he suffers for the pain and emotional distress of the victims. This is a provocative read and brings a good perspective into the life of a police officer. -Floy Turner, Special Agent Florida Department of Law Enforcement (Retired) and Best-Selling Author, Behind Her Miami Badge In this compelling pager-turner, Investigator-detective Edward S. Scott offers rare insights into how sexual assaults continue to plague communities of all sizes. As someone who has written about sexual assault and has been an advocate at a rape crisis center, I'm all too aware that sexual assaults of all kinds too often go unreported. These are the crimes that tend to fall through the cracks of justice. Without Scott and the survivors, the rapist, well-known in the community, would still be among us, free to victimize even more women. Scott actually listened to the multiple accusers, most of whom hadn't filed police reports. He allowed their trauma to affect him and change his life, and not always for the better. Dark Daze & Foggy Nights is an excellent book. -Virginia McCullough, Award-winning Author of Women's Fiction and Romance Dark Days & Foggy Nights is authentic and brutally honest. Edward S. Scott does an outstanding job of capturing the essence of the police investigation and the heart of a true public servant in telling this amazing story. In my thirty-three years in a police uniform, working a patrol beat to narcotics investigations, I have seldom read such accurate descriptions of policing and the nuances that make up a driven public servant who puts him/herself in harm's way. Scott breathes life into this incredible story from the firsthand perspective of a working police investigator. -Joseph E. Mosca, Sergeant (Retired), Florida Highway Patrol and Author of Scorpion Wind: A Trooper John Stella Novel Dark Daze & Foggy Nights is a riveting true crime drama by first time author, Edward S. Scott, who takes readers into the nether world of bars, single women, drink-spiking and serial rape all at the hands of one denizen of this world. This is not a just the facts book, but a gritty story of a world, that once you enter it is hard to exit until that story is over. This is a walk on the road of good versus evil. Be prepared to be mesmerized. -Steve Daniels, High-Risk Parole Agent (Retired) and True Crime Author
