FIFTY SHADES OF TRUE CRIME with DOUG FIFER

In this episode, retired Alaskan police officer and author Doug Fifer takes us inside the darkest corners of his 25-year career in law enforcement. From crime scene analysis to deviant sexual crimes and hostage negotiations, Doug has seen humanity at its most twisted—and lived to tell the stories with a mix of grit, honesty, and hard-earned humor. We talk about his new book, Fifty Shades of True Crime, where he pulls back the curtain on real cases that are shocking, disturbing, and unforgettable. Doug shares what it was like negotiating with serial killers, solving homicides, and confronting crimes so bizarre they seem stranger than fiction.But beyond the badge, Doug opens up about his Alaska Native heritage, family life in the Last Frontier, and even his unexpected side passion—wine making. With his trademark wit, Doug proves that even in the face of darkness, finding light (and laughter) is essential.⚠️ Content warning: This episode contains discussion of violent crime and sexual exploitation, which may be distressing for some listeners.BUY FIFTY SHADES OF TRUE CRIME ON AMAZON UK:https://amzn.eu/d/2NhCr7GAMAZON USA:https://a.co/d/eiXHzMuAlso available around the world, search "Fifty Shades Of True Crime" by Douglas FiferBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/across-the-pond--6537033/support.LEAVE US THOSE 5 STAR REVIEWS!
