ATF Special Agent Lou Valoze personally led long-term ops that kept him in harm’s way for extended periods of time, years on end. While telling of these experiences, Lou also describes in detail how his heroic and lifesaving work came with a cost, nearly destroying his family and his life. A must read for anyone interested in true heroes and true crime!”—Steve Murphy, former DEA agent who the Netflix series <i>Narcos</i> was based on;

“Lou Valoze was that undercover operative that all us other Undercovers wanted to be. He was bigger, stronger, more handsome, more charismatic, more courageous and of upmost importance, smarter than the rest of us in the game. When I looked a Lou, it wasn’t with jealousy or envy, it was with admiration; pride that ‘this guy’ was on my side. In his book <i>Storefront Sting: An ATF Agent’s Life Undercover</i>, for someone of Lou’s natural assets and track record of overwhelming achievement, to openly discuss his flaws and mistakes, doesn’t diminish him in my eyes, it elevates him. Ego and self-confidence are key elements to the personalities of high-achieving UCs. Lou checks his at the door revealing to us his inner demons and providing the raw insight to his covert world that enhances his credibility, dignity and integrity.”—Jay Dobyns, a retired ATF agent, author of <i>No Angel: My Harrowing Journey to the Inner Circle of the Hells Angels</i>, and <i>Catching Hell: A True Story of Abandonment and Betrayal</i>.
