Former Alexandria Police Chief Thomas Cicardo will have a book signing for his novel, " Because They Could," 1-3 p.m. Saturday, July 29, at Books-A-Million in the Southgate Shopping Center , 2934 Ryan St.
The book revolves around a determined police chief trying to hold his Louisiana town together while prejudice, greed and a biased newspaper that will do anything to boost sales further divide the town already on fire with racial tension.
Alexandria native Cicardo is a graduate of the FBI National Academy in Quantico, Virginia, and the LSU Law Enforcement Institute in Baton Rouge. He served 30 years with the Alexandria Police Department, retiring as police chief in 2003.

according to an email we received from carolyn cicardo: "the last book signing at borders in baton rouge was their most successful signing to date." mrs. cicardo also promises an upcoming 3rd edition:
"We've been in contact with a literary agent in New York, who read a sample of the book. His thoughts were this and I quote "On an individual basis, these tales are quite captivating, but it needs help in the narrative structure." He suggested an editor with expertise in commercial/mainstream genre. So, here goes edition 3"
