A Hunt for Justice: The True Story of an Undercover Wildlife Agent

Autor Lucinda Delaney Schroeder
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mar 2010
For thirty years, Lucinda Delaney Schroeder held an unusual government position: she was one of the handful of women special agents with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. In August 1992, she accepted an assignment that forever changed--and endangered--her life. She posed as a big-game hunter in Alaska in order to infiltrate an international ring of poachers out to kill the biggest and best of that state's wildlife. A Hunt for Justice recounts her dramatic story--a story she was not legally permitted to write about until her retirement in 2004.

From 1974 to 2004, Lucinda Delaney Schroeder was one of a handful of women who were special agents with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. In August 1992, she accepted an assignment that forever changed and endangered her life. Leaving her husband and seven-year-old daughter behind in Wisconsin, she posed as a big-game hunter in Alaska in order to infiltrate an international ring of poachers out for trophy wildlife. A Hunt for Justice recounts her dramatic story, which she was not legally permitted to write about until her retirement in 2004, the same year she appeared on the A&E television network to discuss the operation. In 2009 her story appeared on Investigation Discovery. More than simply an adventure or true-crime tale, it's a story of a woman surviving in a male-dominated field, a woman against the wilderness, and a wife and mother risking it all for a cause she believes in."
