Tecolote Book Shop Book Signing Kenneth Strange

The “Tecolote Book Shop” is proud to welcome award-winning author, educator and former FBI Special Agent Kenneth Strange Jr. for a special book signing of two of his books—his debut travel adventure book, It’s Your Camino: One Couple’s 500-Mile Pilgrimage Across Spain which earned an IPPY Award and the gripping true-crime memoir, A Cop’s Son: One G-Man’s Fight Against Jihad, Global Fraud and the Cartels which earned an American Legacy Book Award. The event will be held Saturday, December 6, 2025, from 3:00–5:00 PM at the Tecolote Book Shop in Montecito, California, 1470 E. Valley Rd. #52 (Montecito Village Shopping Center).

In It’s Your Camino, Kenneth Strange and his wife, Aurora, embark on a five-hundred-mile, thirty-one-day trek from the Pyrenees Mountains in France to the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Spain. For the couple, walking the Camino is about adventure and a lifelong love of Spain, both of which shine through in It’s Your Camino.

In A Cop’s Son, Special Agent Strange pulls back the curtain on his decorated 21-year career with three distinguished federal agencies, taking readers behind fortress-like doors into the shadowy world of terrorists, international fraudsters, and deadly cartels. This fast-paced memoir blends real-life suspense with insider detail, offering a thrilling ride through some of the most dangerous investigations of our time.
