Move Over James Patterson – Grannie Private Eye Goes Undercover

She’s not unlike your typical 66 year old grandmother.

Miami, FL (PRWEB) June 9, 2006 -- She’s not unlike your typical 66 year old grandmother. She bakes cookies for her grandchildren, goes for afternoon walks with her husband of 35 years and oh, last week she was sent on an undercover mission in New York City where she’s infiltrated a multi-billion dollar corporation whose tentacles reach some of the most powerful organizations in the nation.

“No I'm not on crack, this is really my life.” so writes author Laura Lanfield, P.I. in her debut tell all book, “Bail Bonds Babylon”. It is the first book in a true-crime series called "Bail Bonds Babylon," exposing her life as a bondswoman and how she became one of the top under cover detectives in the country at 66 years old.

”I cannot tell you my real name, “ Ms. Lanfield says, “because I put not only my life but the life of my beloved family in danger, so let's just call me Laura Lanfield.”

Even some of her closest family and friends have no idea. She’s kept it a secret from the world all these years. “In fact, the truth is,” she says, “there are people who if they knew what I was exposing would have me and my family killed immediately - no questions asked.”

Ms. Lanfield explains that because she puts her life on the line every day she wants the story told before it's too late.

“I want my grandchildren to have a legacy and be proud of their grandmother because in this crazy business I live I could be gone at any second.”

Copies of “Bail Bonds Babylon” are available on Amazon.com, through her website: LauraLanfield.com and through Books & Books in Miami.

An excerpt from “Bail Bonds Babylon” …

Getting a gun pointed in your face and being the only broad in a smelly old bail bonds office full of chauvinist pigs ain’t easy but when you’re raising two snot nose brats on a single-mother’s salary you do whatcha gotta do to make a living. So began my life as a bails bondswoman, one of the first in the biz.

From chasing drug warloads down in the Caribbean to schlepping through the hot thick jungles of Columbia in order to rescue my compadres, from rescuing a stripper and ending up locked in the back of a kidnapper’s Lincoln Continental to being attacked by toe-sucking pervert, I’ve done it all. And I did it all while trying to hold down the fort, keep my two kids out of trouble and keep an active sex life. Hey, I may be 66 years old but I ain’t dead.
