Jack R. Lundquist, Jr. was
born and raised in the City of San Pablo,
California, a suburb within the San
Francisco Bay Area. His desire to be a
police officer was formulated early in
life. He became a police explorer scout,
and later a reserve police officer with the
City of San Pablo Police Department. At age
twenty-one Jack Lundquist was drafted by
the United States Army, and served as a
Military Policeman at Fort George G. Meade,
Maryland, where he obtained the rank of
Sergeant (E-5). Upon being honorably
discharged, Jack Lundquist returned to the
San Francisco Bay area.
After a brief stint as a Reserve Police Officer he was
hired by the Oakland Police Department. During his tenure he attended the
University of San Francisco, obtaining a Bachelor of Arts Degree. His love for
basic patrol work kept him in a marked police car for two separate periods,
totaling twelve years. The remainder of the time was spent as criminal
investigator, ending with a seven-year period in Vice.
Upon retirement Jack Lundquist moved to the City of
Truckee, California, and took a position as Chief of Security for the Sands
Regency Casino Hotel, in Reno, Nevada. He served two years in that capacity,
when he moved to Las Vegas, Nevada to facilitate his wife's employment.
Once settling in, he
accepted a position with the Clark County
Department of Business License as a Special
Agent in the Night Enforcement Unit,
specializing in alcoholic beverage control
enforcement, a job requiring considerable
undercover work in many of the adult related
businesses, such as; strip clubs, sex clubs,
and adult entertainment throughout Clark
County, Nevada.

ViceCop,
the sequel to Beatcop
culminates the twenty-one year career of
"Officer Blondie." Extraordinary attention
was put into both books to ensure each is a
stand alone book, meaning a reader can pick
up either, and upon reading it find there is
a beginning, middle and ending. Yet, both
books in sequence effectively and
chronologically cover the author's entire
career as a police officer working a dodgy
city. ViceCop readers will
experience the most remarkable stories,
including the inner workings of two major
investigations, including a year long
investigation into charitable bingo, and why
six Oakland Housing Authority Officers were
federally indicted and subsequently
convicted of misconduct, assault, theft, and
planting drugs on suspects.
