From the Back Cover
In the '70s, Thomas Lion was involved in a major conspiracy. In 1984 he broke away clean, married an undercover cop's daughter and tried to live a normal life. One day two federal fugitives paid a visit to his Lake Tahoe antique store, and suddenly the past he'd tried to forget became a recurring nightmare. Three government agencies wanted him. The lawman father of Lion's beautiful bride wanted his rebellious daughter back. It took five years, and deputizing eighteen million viewers of TV's Unsolved Mysteries to force Lion out of a surrealistic underground world filled with assumed names, secret offshore bank accounts, and betrayal. "Thomas Lion shows he's a writer of uncommon insight, honesty and promise as he builds a fascinating story about his experience as a former millionaire turned fugitive. His appearance on TV's Unsolved Mysteries led to his capture and doing hard time in prison. I found it an irresistible read about the dark side of life while evading federal indictments and incarceration." Ed Johnson, Golden Hours; Oregon Public Broadcasting "A page turner, an eye opener. Thomas Lion takes the reader for a backseat ride into the fast-paced netherworld of fugitives running on the fringes of the American dream."
John Shinnick, Editor Media-Wave.com, Vancouver, BC "Real life often results in the most interesting stories. That's certainly the case with Thomas Lion's book I Was An Unsolved Mystery. An absorbing read and a nice follow to his first book, Chelan." Dennis Rahm, Washington State radio talk show host Readers of Lion's first book Chelan have repeatedly and impatiently asked about I Was An Unsolved Mystery. They won't be disappointed.
