According to one reader of Dancing
with Devils, Emerson's series of law enforcement tales presents an interesting weave of the inner thoughts
of man who was "born" into law enforcement and made law enforcement his vocation and his passion. I was reared in
Chatham County, North Carolina and grew up under the jurisdiction of the author's father, the long term Sheriff of Chatham
County, John Emerson. Many stories still circulate of the integrity and ability of Sheriff Emerson. The author obviously carried
the integrity and "savvy" of his father into his interesting career. The book is well written and fun to read for
any person that is interested in law enforcement and stories of personal integrity. A great sequel to this book would be a
similarly written biography of the author's father.”
