I hadn’t thought about the ODMP in ages. I used to work with the guy who started it right around when he started it. Oddly, the son of an officer that inspired the site also worked there.

Good timing, as I was looking for something new to read and was not familiar him. I wasn't able to check out Crooks but I was able to get the Long and Faraway Gone and quite like it so far.
