BUT TEMPLE TOOK TIME TO SPEAK WITH STUDENTS ABOUT HIS TIME ON THE FORCE AND HIS PROCESS FOR WRITING A BOOK.

“A Ghostly Shade of Pale” is written as fiction, but it is based on things that happened to me when I was fresh out of Ole Miss in the early 70’s. The first drug wars had been declared by President Nixon and I went directly into the Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics. It was brand new, I was naïve and did not know what I was getting into.”>
