"A neighbor brought your book over for me to read. What an inspiration. It's hard to explain in words, but your story as assured me hat despite whatever comes our way, we can always turn to the Lord and know that we will be watched over."  Tim Hale, Utah

"I finished reading your book and wanted you to know I really liked it!"   Stan Kiser, Retired Forest Service Law Enforcement Officer

"Your book was really interesting.  Again, a good read."  Howard Moline, Missouri City, TX


"I saw you signing books at Costco in Boise Idaho the other day.  And  the title Agent Bishop caught my eye.  After discovering the look was about an FBI agent 'moonlighting' as a Bishop my first thoughts  turned to what horrible things this FBI agent probably said about the  LDS religion and its 'authorities', beliefs, and ways of life.  I'm  embarrassed at my cynicism.  After discovering your book was not at all what I thought, I was  relieved.  I felt the urge to send you a "thanks" for all you've  done, your service (as an agent and bishop), and I wish you success  and your family the best."  Jeri Olearain

"My dad picked up your book and had it signed at Costco.  I was goingthrough his book library and found your book.  After starting to readI could not put your book down.  I love investigative stories andsituations.  Over the Thanksgiving weekend we had a discussion with are tired detective about Erval LeBaron who he is on the LeBaron hitlist and when I started to read about him in your book it was very interesting. Thank you for all the great stories and experiences you had with the FBI and being a bishop.  I have a friend from the Portland area that I am going to send her your book to read.  Her biological father had many run ins with the police and maybe you. He did threats thru the mail, extremist etc during the 70-80's. I know his first name is Ron.  Thank you for sharing those great stories and thank you for your part in protecting our country.  I firmly believe that Heavenly Father was watching over you and protecting you during your detective work.  Thank you again for the great reading."  Lisa Whiteley

"Agent Bishop provides a unique insight on FBI investigations from Florida, Oregon, Utah and even Bolivia. Mikes detailed analysis and description of events is so vivid its almost painful. A captivating, informative, well written book."   Ike Mortensen, Professional pilot

"Mike McPheter's book captures so many of the experiences I shared as an FBI Special Agent -- full of colorful characters, tragedies and triumphs, respect for great associates and life lessons learned along the way.  In a down-to-earth, real-life, personal way, Mike's memories reflect the "Fidelity, Bravery and Integrity" of the people of the FBI.  Thanks, Mike, for a job well done."  Alfred G. Gunn FBI 1968-1999

"You will not be able to "close" Mike's book once you begin to read it."   Claire FitzGerald

"McPheters accurately describes in his book his outstanding career as a Special Agent of the FBI, and as a remarkable, spiritual leader, as he served an unparalleled four times as a Mormon Bishop while employed at the same time with the FBI.  As a personal friend of McPheters, and as a first-hand witness of his accomplishments, I can vouch for the fact that he carried out his FBI responsibilities and his spiritual, eclesiastical duties with complete dedication of heart, mind and energy.  McPheter's book makes for excellent and fascinating reading.  I high recomment it." 
Leon Fish, Special Agent FBI Retired

"Mike, your "one hour" talk program today was incredible."  Myrna Houston

"As an avid and voracious reader, I found your book, “Agent Bishop”, both entertaining and at the same time, informative. I marvel at the talent and ingenuity that you exhibit in keeping a level head while working with the dregs of society and at the same time, counseling youth and others in need of spiritual comfort! I wholeheartedly recommend your book to anyone in need of a good and uplifting read that will show the world that we do indeed have the “good guys” on our side."  Lanny Cunningham

"Great book!  Cannot put it down.  It has brought back old memories for me."   James B. Tilley, Guatemala

"I want to say I really like Agent Bishop. I like the adventurous spirit of it tied in with the gospel. I almost got to know some of your partners through the book. It has a unique perspective that I like a lot. The best part of it, though, is that it's a true story! Thanks for sharing your experiences."  Orissa, age 15

"I just finished your book.  I really enjoyed reading about the FBI from your perspective.  What we see on TV and in the movies is so exagerated it defies reality.  It was also interesting to have some insight into the Mormon church."  Donna Foley Mabry
