The Last Lawman: True Stories of a Private Detective

Thirty years undercover, on stakeouts, and inside the cases police couldn't — or wouldn't — solve.

Grevillius neither asks for sympathy nor softens the edges... The Last Lawman is a raw account of a life lived in violence, suspicion, and institutional decay. Unsparing, unromantic, and precise — this book is a record, not a performance.

Inside the Book

With thirty-plus years as a private detective in Los Angeles, Nils Grevillius shares how cases are undertaken, the methods used to see without being seen, and how to hear without being heard. After many years as a soldier, spy, contractor, Pinkerton agent, and private detective, Nils finally tells the whole story of a life spent moving toward danger while others retreated from it — from post-riot Watts, back through an unforgiving childhood, the Korean DMZ, and into Army counterintelligence.
