Description
Welcome back, everyone, for the conclusion of my interview with former Savannah Police Homicide Detective Kevin Grogan as we explore one of my favorite places in the world, Savannah, Georgia. Savanah is home to the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD), some of the best food ever, history, haunted houses and ghost tours, and riverboats. It also has a seedy underbelly, with Kevin as our guide; that’s what we’re going to talk about today.
Kevin Grogan is an Army Combat Veteran and former Savanah Police Department Homicide Detective. He has worked a variety of assignments within the Savanah Police Department, including vice and multi-agency task forces.
Kevin is also a screenwriter, producer, and author of the Savannah True Crime Trilogy, with his latest book, No Greater Honor, No Bigger Failure.
