Early on, Frank Hickey worked the Harlem streets as a private eye. He lived for months undercover in the Cajun bayous of Louisiana, hunting a killer. His adventures have taken him around the world. Living outdoors or in crude huts, he learned local languages and culture.

Carrying the gold shield of a Detective-Investigator/Police Officer, he served in the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office on an international serial killer case. Using the Sicilian language, he also went undercover against the New York Mafia.

As a corporal in the Savannah, Georgia Police Department, he learned about the South, then later, as an LAPD officer, he initiated one-person foot patrols in high-crime areas amid gang wars and drive-by shootings

37 years of crime adventures from the jungles of Thailand to southern swamps to the streets of New York form his life. Besides his Max Royster Series, Frank also co-wrote “Spy the Movie” starring Vincent Pastore (“The Sopranos”).

The reading will take place 3pm – 5 pm, here at the Manhattan Art & Antiques Center,1050 Second Ave. (btw 55th Street & 56th Street). We look forward to seeing you!
