In "The Devil Behind The Badge: The Horrifying Twelve Days of the Border Patrol Serial Killer," Jervis, who lives in Austin, tells the shocking story of a U.S. Border Patrol agent turned serial killer who, over the course of 12 days in September 2018, lures four victims into his white Dodge truck, drives them to the edge of town, shoots them at close range and leaves them dead or dying on the sides of rural roads. As the gripping, fast-paced tale unfolds, Jervis paints a portrait of the four murdered women and digs into the murderer's descent from a husband, doting father of three and trusted law enforcement agent into darkness.
Texas Monthly says Jervis "delivers a thrilling tick-tock on the borderland slayings and the effort to solve them."
