Book Synopsis Education of a Street Cop by : John Henson
Download or read book Education of a Street Cop written by John Henson and published by James D Benish. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Veteran street cops are often viewed as distant, strange individuals who exhibit crude and crusty demeanor's. Few people get close to them, and their loved ones are often left wondering how they contributed to such an insufferable personality. Most often, these character flaws are attributed to constant exposure to the worst conditions society offers. JJ Henson's story offers other explanations for the personality traits of the veteran cop. The story follows the evolution in the mind of a naive rookie police officer over a four-year period. Our officer remains unidentified throughout the story because he is a generic white man and fits the mold of many police officers who are now retiring after thirty or so years in the field. The four years in the story -- from the late seventies to early eighties - signified significant changes in the role of law enforcement officers in society. This was a time when police officers were required to make a significant paradigm shift from "peace keepers" to "agents of social change."
Book Synopsis I'm Still Standing by : Raymond Hicks
Download or read book I'm Still Standing written by Raymond Hicks and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I'M STILL STANDING is the story of a man whose idea of duty put him in conflict with the powers that be, and how he endured the injustice of false charges and wrongful incarceration, turning bad providence into spiritual growth. Raymond Hicks writes candidly about the humiliation that he suffered as an upstanding young black officer who was wrongly accused by his coworkers-the anguish and financial ruin that he and his family experienced as he single-handedly attempted to fight corruption within the sheriff's department, as well as within the justice system which failed him. Hicks, a modern-day Serpico, reveals his story in hopes that no other dedicated individual will ever have to suffer through a "justice system gone mad." The purpose of this book is not just to restore justice, to "right the wrongs" visited upon Mr. Hicks, but to make everyone aware of the dangers we all face in a country riddled with corruption to such a degree that "honesty" is all but eliminated.

Download or read book Spirit of Revenge written by S. J Smale and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2018-02-20 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revenge Well, it seems the cleaning fairys been here, he whispered in her ear. Stella nodded and moved slowly toward the door, itching to get to her bedroom, where she left her gun. She didnt like feeling at a disadvantage. George stayed close by her side as they made their way to her bedroom. He kept his shield around her as she cautiously walked over to the chair by her closet and watched her quickly pull on her shoulder harness that cradled her gun. Feeling more secure now that she was armed, Stella turned, narrowing her eyes, searching the room. At first glance, nothing seemed to be disturbed. But when she looked at the mirror over the vanity, her eyes widened. Words were written on the mirror with her favorite lipstick. How does it feel knowing I can take from you like you took from me? I will have my revenge. Secrets Over the last year, Stella was forced to face the fact that indeed she was different. One blow after another continually hit her from her heritage, almost destroying her mental health. If it werent for George Smale coming into her life at that time, she knew she might have been stuck in a psychiatric ward somewhere for the insane. Of course, he would say it was her own inner strength that kept her balanced precariously on the thin line of sanity. Whatever the reason for her keeping her sanity intact, she was tremendously grateful for it. She accepted not only her heritage now but also the fact that she was a direct descendant of Queen Ravena and Prince Gareg. She now considered this fact a gift. Even though she had royal blood flowing through her and was considered the most powerful being in the human world, Stella insisted on dealing with problems the normal, human way. As a private investigator, she relied on facts and procedures, the same way she relied on them when she was a lieutenant on the police force. Now the most important thing was to keep what they were a secret from the rest of the world. Magic must always be kept a secret.
Download or read book Afraid to Death written by Marc Behm and published by Courier Dover Publications. This book was released on 2019-01-01 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Insanely evocative and extremely satisfying." -- The Times (UK) Joe Egan has spent his life on the run. When he was a child, he thought he saw the angel of death. Now every time someone close to him dies, a mysterious blonde woman appears and he's forced to retreat, abandoning jobs and relationships in a never-ending flight across a hallucinatory version of the United States. Is the woman real, a figment of his imagination, or a supernatural apparition -- perhaps even the devil incarnate? The Guardian praised Marc Behm as "a terrific novelist," adding that "Afraid to Death is a fascinating mirror image to The Eye of the Beholder." Behn's previous novel, also available from Dover Publications, spins a gripping tale of obsession and suspense in which a private investigator trails an enigmatic young woman. But this time the protagonist, a dissolute gambler, is being chased by a female character whose reoccurrences excite both fear and attraction.

After walking away from his company, he’s spent a year trying to reinvent himself as a private investigator, living on a houseboat. Which he realizes is a fantasy that’s not really working out, but he doesn’t want to admit that to anybody…yet. Maybe a few more months will turn the tide. But then, on a lazy summer afternoon, a good friend gets killed on Owen’s houseboat, and Owen finds his body. The police think Owen’s girlfriend may be involved. She’s missing, and so is Owen’s former business partner. Who, judging from the blood left on his floor, may also be dead. Then there’s the kidnapping of a local child. And…it turns out that not everybody involved is, strictly speaking, human. Which Owen also never saw coming. Magic? Really? Owen’s new skills get a workout. Now he’s dealing with what used to be his own cutting-edge software development company, a police detective who takes a personal interest, some downsides of recent anti-terror legislation, and…a surprising discovery about local Native American history. You know, the magic thing. Turns out extinction is more complicated than it first appears. But hey. Owen’s still got friends. Too bad he doesn’t know as much about them as he thinks he does…. Find out what happens. Get it now.
Download or read book The Jugger written by Richard Stark and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-06-15 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past can catch up to you—but if he can help it, Parker won’t let his. Sixth in the series praised as “a standout in the history of crime fiction” (AudioFile). Joe Sheer, a retired safecracker living in Nebraska who knows too many of Parker’s criminal secrets, says he’s in trouble. By the time Parker arrives on the scene, the safecracker is dead and a greedy cop, a nosy neighbor, and a gaudy crook are busy looking for a treasure the old man may never have even had. Parker is a pro with a past to protect and a future to consider—and the last thing he needs is a bunch of determined amateurs who know more than they should. And for this pro, killing is the only way out of town. Praise for the Parker novels of Richard Stark (aka Donald Westlake) “Parker . . . lumbers through the pages of Richard Stark’s noir novels scattering dead bodies like peanut shells . . . In a complex world [he] makes things simple.” —William Grimes, The New York Times “Donald Westlake’s Parker novels are among the small number of books I read over and over. Forget all that crap you’ve been telling yourself about War and Peace and Proust—these are the books you’ll want on that desert island.” —Lawrence Block “Richard Stark’s Parker . . . is refreshingly amoral, a thief who always gets away with the swag.” —Stephen King, Entertainment Weekly “One of the most original characters in mystery fiction has returned without a loss of step, savvy, sheer bravado, street smarts, or sense of survival.” —Mystery News
