Colin McLaren, a former Australian detective, boasts an illustrious career in elite crime squads, where he tackled some of the country's most heinous crimes, including murders, drug importations, bombings, and kidnappings. During his tenure, he was part of more task forces than any serving detective of his time, leaving a lasting impact on the Australian law enforcement landscape.
One of his most notable achievements was orchestrating the country's biggest ever undercover sting on the mafia, which ultimately led to the imprisonment of Australia's notorious mafia godfather. This groundbreaking operation resulted in the jailing of numerous mafiosi, sending a powerful message to organized crime syndicates.
After leaving the Police, McLaren discovered a hidden talent for writing and has since penned five bestselling books, cementing his reputation as a masterful storyteller. His literary success soon led to opportunities in documentary film making, where he has worked as a producer, advisor, and narrator.
Today, McLaren resides in Australia but travels globally, working on various film projects that showcase his expertise and passion for storytelling. His unique blend of investigative skills, writing prowess, and filmmaking experience has made him a sought-after collaborator in the industry.
