A criminal profiler, trained at Quantico, former Chief Superintendent of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) Kate Lines recounts her remarkable story using pivotal cases she worked on in the course of her career.
KATE LINES joined the Ontario Provincial Police in 1977. Her early days at work comprised uniform patrol, undercover drugs, fraud and major crimes. In 1991, she completed the FBI's Criminal Profiling Fellowship Program in Quantico, Virginia, the second Canadian to graduate from the program. Lines later became the first female Director of Intelligence Bureau. Much honoured during her 33-year policing career, Lines received the Officer of the Order of Merit Medal, Queen's Commission, International Association of Women Police Excellence in Performance Award, Ontario Women in Law Enforcement Excellence in Performance and Team Endeavours Award and Canadian Police Leadership Forum's Police Leader of the Year award. She currently acts as a consultant to businesses and police forces and on TV shows such as Rookie Blue and Flashpoint.
“Kate Lines, in the twenty-five years I’ve known her, has been my
role model and friend. Her courage, her leadership skills and her
unwavering compassion for victims and their families are an
inspiration. I’m so glad she’s told her story, enabling Canadians
everywhere to get to know this extraordinary police officer.”
—Stevie Cameron, author of On the Take and On the Farm
“It’s always great when an 'important read’ is also completely
engrossing. Crime Seen is such a book. Kate Lines was a ground
breaker in the field of forensic profiling and her autobiography is
a behind-the-scenes take on some of the more notorious crimes that
have occurred in Canada.”
—Maureen Jennings, author of the Detective Murdoch and Tom Tyler
series
“I have known Kate as a professional colleague and friend for
over twenty-four years, but I never truly appreciated how
much she had achieved until I read Crime Seen. Kate takes
the reader through her fascinating and exciting career, beginning
as one of only two women in her basic police officer class, to
becoming an FBI-trained profiler, a supervisor, Chief
Superintendent and more. To Kate I say, Thanks for all you
have done to make society a safer place. To the reader I say,
Read, learn and enjoy!”
—Roy Hazelwood, FBI (ret.), author of Dark Dreams and The Evil Men
