THE LIZ GILES STORIES:


Sargent Elizabeth Giles, Maine State Police:

Liz Giles is six feet tall, with long auburn hair, and emerald eyes. A five-year veteran of the Maine State Police, she looks much younger than her twenty-seven years. Her beauty continually fools many a wife beater, drunken logger, and convenience store robber. Those who occasionally try to ignore her authority, are always unpleasantly surprised. Liz has a talent for quelling domestic disturbances, hunting down criminals, and winning physical confrontations.

On duty, she's a competent, controlled, and occasionally lethal, Maine State Police Sergeant. At over six feet tall, in her shiny black uniform boots, Liz is either eye to eye or looking downward toward most of her contacts. With her hair tucked under her “Smokey Bear” hat, and wearing her dark aviator “cop” shades, she rarely gets much static from people she's dealing with in an official capacity.

Off-duty, her large Ray Bans, casual clothes, self-assured demeanor, and her natural beauty, make many wonder if she's a vacationing movie star. A movie star you'd probably never imagine would play a cop.

Liz is assigned to the far northeastern region of Maine, where there are more bears and moose than people. That may seem to be a good thing, but the people who are living there frequently have their own dark reasons for living in such a remote place. It's not uncommon for Liz to be working with the Maine Ranger Service to catch poachers, burglars, and backwoods people who refuse to recognize the laws or the authority of the officers who enforcement them. Nearly everyone carries a gun and a hunting knife. A large percentage of the region's law breakers will not hesitate to use weapons to avoid being caught doing whatever it is they're doing.

Liz Giles lives with danger every day, and wouldn't have it any other way. Come back every month for a new glimpse into both Liz's life as a Maine State Trooper, and her private life. Join Liz in her adventures as a single young woman who happens to be an intrepid female cop in a tough place.
