Gerald Shur is the man credited with the creation of the Federal Witness Protection Program. Pete Earley (born September 5, 1951 in Douglas, Arizona) is an American journalist and writer of non-fiction books and novels. A former Washington Post reporter, he is the author of books about the Aldrich Ames and John Walker espionage cases. His book Circumstantial Evidence: Death, Life, and Justice in a Southern Town won an Edgar Award from the Mystery Writers of America for Best Fact Crime Book in 1996. His book about the John Walker spy ring, Family of Spies, was a New York Times bestseller and was made into a CBS miniseries starring Powers Boothe and Lesley Ann Warren. In 2007, he was a finalist for a Pulitzer Prize for his book Crazy. Derived from a Kirkus review: An eye-opening history of the controversial Federal Witness Protection Program, from WITSEC founder Shur and award-winning journalist Earley. They chronicle WITSEC's development and its role in defeating American and international organized crime.

The third-person account of Shur's activities and WITSEC's history is supplemented by a protected witness's 30-page first-person narrative.…
