Dying on the job - a cop's life (and death) | Mark Bergin on Writers Drinking Whiskey

After dying twice on his job as a cop, Mark Bergin retired from the force and transitioned to a new career: writing. Join us for a drink as we discuss high-speed chases, his time as a reporter prior to joining law enforcement, what happens when we die, and Mark reads from his upcoming novel.

Mark Bergin retired from the Alexandria, Virginia Police Department as a Lieutenant in 2014 after 28 years and, in the end, two heart attacks. (He died both times. See April 2015 blog). He was twice named Police Officer of the Year, for drug and robbery investigations, and served in most of the posts described in his 2019 debut novel APPREHENSION.
