Bradley Kuhns was a regular guy who happened to be very good at his job. That was the trouble-he was too good. Even worse, he was honest.A smart, exceptionally skilled polygraph (lie detection) examiner with more than one Ph.D., Kuhns felt honored to enter the ranks of the elite Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD). He soon discovered, though, that by the 1980s when he joined LAPD the polygraph section was coasting on its reputation, filled with marginally competent examiners who routinely manipulated and falsified the results of lie detector exams in exchange for gifts of cash and liquor. Promotions were handed to those who played along, while the few who didn't might find themselves on the losing end of an "unfortunate accident."Brad Kuhns offers a disturbing memoir that details the intimidation, threats and attempts on his life. With his heart on his sleeve, he chronicles the toll the stress took to his health and weighs the heavy burden of fear and torment suffered by the women close to him. Kuhns ultimately went into hiding for two decades with only a select few trustworthy souls knowing the full extent of his chilling, touching story - until now.
