'A Tragedy Turned Me Into An Undercover Cop.... with a Death Wish'

Todd's life was going well, he had just joined the police, he'd met a woman he loved and he doted on her young son.


But just after they saw in the new millennium - Todd's world changed in an instant. And the tragic event from that day, led him to becoming an undercover cop... who didn't care if he lived or died.


Todd's story is raw, real and inspiring and now he is turning his pain into purpose and has now put his story into a book that he hopes will encourage people to talk about their mental health, and save lives.
