William DeNisi’s law enforcement
career spanned over three decades and exposed him from every policing job from rookie to chief. Additionally, the retired Fountain Valley Police Department
police captain worked a wide variety of assignments including narcotics, vice and homicide.
William DeNisi is the author of Choking
Sam and Trinity.
According to the book description
of Trinity, “A series of murders
occur. Human organs are being harvested for the lucrative black market trade, the proceeds going to fund terrorist activities
in the U.S. Invoking national security, the FBI steps in and clamps a veil of secrecy. Simultaneously, fanatical Muslim terrorists
conspire to bring a new crushing series of blows to the Great Satan of America. In a small warehouse in Orange County, several
dirty radiological bombs are assembled. Co-conspirators smuggle in a small soviet artillery tactical nuke. Their plan is to
detonate all the devices on Christmas Eve. Detective Mike Sullivan, a former intelligence agent, and friend Charlie Gomez
are enlisted to conduct a sub-rosa investigation of the organ theft murders. Through good police work and blind luck Sullivan
and Gomez manage to unravel the plot and race the clock in a heart-seizing attempt to stop the most devastating attacks on
mainland America since 9/11.”
According to the book description
of Choking Sam, “Choking Sam
While global attention continues to be riveted on the Middle East, the North Koreans stumble upon the one thing that could
instantly catapult their tiny country to world dominance. Their find is, literally, out of this world and its chilling potential
for energy and weaponry far eclipses mere nuclear fission. The Koreans struggle to develop their secret and keep their people
in line. Serial murder, deep sea exploration, international intrigue and enemy secret agents operating in the Southern California
shadow of mouseville coalesce to provide another roller-coaster adventure for Orange County Sheriff's Detective Mike Sullivan
and his sidekick, Charlie Gomez.”
One reader said of Choking
Sam, “This second gripping novel by DeNisi splendidly retains his James Bond-type protagonist Investigator
Mike Sullivan and his sidekick, raconteur & attorney, Charlie Gomez. Once again, the action begins in an Orange County
Sheriff's jurisdiction with a series of brutal killings of an Asian racial group, but the cases are unexplainably appropriated
by the FBI. Concurrently are world reportings of explosions & earthquakes in the Sea of Japan off North Korea. In this
setting, Mike and Charlie deploy in an underwater deep sea search of Japanese waters for a lost energy device, and are entwined
in an adventurous plane rescue taking them into China and Russia before returning to Orange County where Mike is confronted
with the principals leading to closure of the Asian killing spree, and just in time for Mike to resume a desperately needed
liaison with his old flame, Audrey.
The success of the book is attributable
to the book's easy reading prose style, engaging characters and the writer's imposition of multiple subplot stories
which then mesh together quite akin to Huxley's "Point CounterPoint." I'll leave it to the reader to discover
where the title comes from. This is a book you'll want to read now, and not wait for the Holidays.”

One reader said of Trinity, “Bill Denisi's
Trinity is a story about the possibility of terrorism once again hitting American soul, and of the two detectives, Sullivan
and Gomez, who race against time to prevent it. It's a quickly moving story that will draw you in and keep you flipping
pages into the middle of the night. Denisi's real life experience in law enforcement and his knowledge of investigative
techniques really shines through in this work, adding credibility to the story and making it all that more intriguing. The
back story provided for the terrorists adds another interesting angle to Trinity, demonstrating Bill's ability to look
at many sides of a situation and weave them into a cohesive tale. When the last page is turned -- which may very well happen
at two in the morning while your spouse sleeps beside you in bed -- you'll be glad you discovered the world of Sullivan
and Gomez.”
About the Fountain
Valley Police Department
The Fountain Valley Police Department
(California) is organized into four bureaus: Patrol; Traffic; Detective; and Records.
According to the Fountain Valley Police Department, “The Patrol Division, often referred to as "the backbone
of the Police Department", operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Patrol Officers generally work in full uniform and operate
marked black and white Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor vehicles. They are the first responders to the public calls
for service, the key to our Community-Oriented Policing efforts and the City's first line of defense against the criminal
element.”
The Detective Bureau provides
follow-up investigations on all criminal matters with the exception of those involving narcotics and gangs. The Bureau is
commanded by a Detective Lieutenant and is comprised of a Detective Sergeant, 5 full-time Investigators, a civilian Court
Liaison, a civilian Crime Analyst, and a Secretary. Each Investigator handles a specific assignment, which includes the investigation
of crimes against persons, juvenile and sexual assaults, fraud/forgery and checks, residential and commercial burglaries and
auto theft and miscellaneous crimes.
The Fountain Valley Police Department
also has specialized units such as SWAT, K9, Crisis Negotiators and Field Training Officers.
In 2006 the Fountain Valley Police Department joined forces with the West County SWAT Team. The West County SWAT Team
is a regional Special Weapons and Tactics Team serving the cities of Cypress, Los Alamitos, Westminster and Fountain Valley.
West County SWAT consists of police personnel made of four distinct units including; Tactical Officers, Tactical Emergency
Paramedics, Crisis Negotiators and Tactical Dispatchers. Joining West County SWAT resulted in a four-fold increase in personnel
trained for tactical operations. As a partner on this team, police personnel
train a minimum of 10 hours per month in critical incident management, tactics and pre-planned responses to a variety of dangerous
incidents.
