In The Line Of Duty

Writers of the West

Thirty years. Thousands of calls. Fires, fugitives, crime scenes, high-speed pursuits, and memories that don't disappear when the shift ends.
In LAWDOG, Jason Slabbaert takes readers behind the badge and into the raw, unpredictable world of a career first responder.
His journey begins as a young volunteer firefighter, running toward burning buildings, devastating accidents, and emergency calls that would stay with him for decades. From there, he enters the dangerous world of bounty hunting and fugitive recovery, tracking wanted men and women across Texas before ultimately finding his calling in law enforcement.
What follows is an unfiltered police memoir built from three decades on the front lines.
Slabbaert recounts the calls officers and first responders never truly forget: violent confrontations, tragic deaths, bizarre arrests, dangerous pursuits, heartbreaking scenes involving children, unexpected moments of humor, and the split-second decisions that separate an ordinary shift from a life-changing one.
But LAWDOG is about more than police stories.
Behind the adrenaline is another reality; the cumulative weight of first responder trauma and PTSD. Slabbaert spent years doing what many firefighters, police officers, EMTs, and other first responders learn to do: compartmentalize the horror, finish the shift, and show up again tomorrow.
Eventually, those experiences follow you home.
With dark humor, vulnerability, and firsthand insight, Slabbaert explores brotherhood, family, sacrifice, resilience, mental health, and what it means to remain human after spending a career meeting strangers on some of the worst days of their lives.
LAWDOG is a true first responder memoir for readers fascinated by real police stories, law enforcement, firefighting, bounty hunting, PTSD, survival, and life behind the badge.
The uniform may come off at the end of a shift.
What you witnessed doesn't.

The Good Sergeant's Guide to Police Complaints

#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER Hank Idsinga, whose grandfather was murdered in the Holocaust, became the country’s leading homicide detective; he shares his insights into tracking down murderers and serial killers over his colourful and decorated thirty-year career. From the age of ten, Hank Idsinga knew he wanted to become a homicide detective, when he learned that his grandfather had been murdered by the Nazis in the Second World War. He prepared to be a police officer his entire youth and soon found himself in ill-fitting suits training for the job. More than competent—smart, incisive, caring, respectful—Idsinga won over his fellow officers and his superiors. He was as capable of tracking down a getaway man as he was informing a mother that her son, lost to crime, would never return home. Idsinga found himself at the center of some of the most notable crimes in recent Toronto history, from the Jane Creba shooting on Boxing Day to shootouts on Yonge Street to helping track down some of the most vicious serial criminals the city has ever seen. But it was in homicide that Hank Idsinga would prove such a vital asset to the Toronto Police Services. Idsinga teamed up with his partners, including future chief of police Mark Saunders, on many murder calls—some one-offs, others more nefarious—taking in the scene with his excellent recall, finding the motive and the method faster and more insightfully than most. Idsinga and his team of seasoned detectives participated in taking down some of the worst Toronto has to offer, perhaps none more so than serial killer Bruce McArthur, who had terrorized the gay village for years. Idsinga became the public face for that investigation, and despite the criticism of the police force’s handling of the murders, Idsinga always appeared strong and compassionate in front of the media’s camera flashes. The High Road breathes life into the true detective genre, with raw, accessible and punchy prose, as honest and compelling as the homicide detective himself. His grandfather would have been proud.

"From the highest-ranking whistleblower in the history of the NYPD, a political memoir that exposes the brokenness of policing from both outside and inside the system During the workday, Edwin Raymond is on the beat as a ranked lieutenant in the New York Police Department. When the uniform comes off, he takes on a very different role: the lead plaintiff in the largest-ever civil rights lawsuit against the very police force he serves. This is the true story of one of our country's most important whistleblowers against police injustice, told in his own words. Raised in a poverty-stricken, largely immigrant neighborhood in Brooklyn and driven toward law enforcement by the hope of being a positive influence in his community, Raymond quickly learned that the problem with policing is a lot deeper than merely "a few bad apples"-the entire mechanism is set up to ensure that racial profiling is rewarded, and there are weighty consequences for cops who don't play along. Offering a rare, often shocking view of American policing through the eyes of an insider to the system, Raymond pulls back the curtain on the many injustices woven into the NYPD's training, data, and practices-all of which have been repackaged and repurposed by police departments across America. At once revelatory and galvanizing, An Inconvenient Cop is a whistleblower account unlike any other-a book that courageously bears witness to and exposes institutional violence, all while presenting a vision of radical hope, making the case for a world in which the police's responsibility is to the people, not to their arrest numbers"--

Tell Me Everything

'Thrilling...has the snap of a Hollywood script...compelling.' Wall Street JournalThe gripping true story, that reads like fiction, of how legendary FBI Special Agent Martin Suarez went deep undercover - and lived a double-life for years - to infiltrate Colombia's most insidious drug cartels.Martin Suarez, a legend within the FBI who specialised in Colombian drug cartels, holds the record for the longest time spent continuously undercover. As his alter ego Manny, Martin followed the unspoken rules of the cartels: He knew the right lingo to use, the right whiskey to drink, the right watch to wear, the wrong questions to ask. He smuggled over $1 billion worth of cocaine into the United States for the Medellín Cartel and, as his cover deepened, he graduated to become a high-level money launderer for the North Coast Cartel. He helped wash tens of millions of dollars worth of drug money, ensnaring himself in a high-stakes game of cat and mouse while simultaneously exposing the Black Market Peso Exchange, the most insidious money laundering apparatus in the world that involved billionaire bankers, blue-chip American corporations, and even the President of Colombia himself.Martin was raised by a father who served in the - military and valorized the nobility of the FBI, and Martin stopped at nothing to allow his father to live vicariously through his son. He wanted nothing more than to make his father proud and to be a good husband to his wife, and a loving father to his two young sons. He became a man caught between two worlds - that of an undercover agent who wanted to rid the world of its evils, but also that of a family man who was trying not to lose himself in this dark, brutal underworld that captivated the globe during the War on Drugs.And yet his worlds begin to collide as danger creeps dangerously close to his doorstep when his cover is blown and a cartel-hired sicario comes hunting for him.Inside the Cartel is told with the pulse-racing action of a Hollywood blockbuster. This is the story of Suarez and his time undercover and how maintaining the trust of hardened criminals can start to tear away at even the most principled soldier.

Fifty-Two Years a Policeman

"When Scott Payne was growing up, he never envisioned a future that included what happened on Halloween night 2019. Out in the woods of Georgia, he tried desperately to save a goat from being sacrificed in a ritual by a group of neo-Nazis without revealing that he was actually an undercover agent. Now, this retired FBI agent reveals how and why he infiltrated the rapidly growing American Nazi group The Base. Known as the 'Hillbilly Donnie Brasco,' Payne was guided through some of the most terrifying and risky assignments in the FBI's history by his devotion to his family and his Christian faith. [His book] is an unflinching look at one of biggest threats in national security, as well as an inspiring memoir from an American hero"

How I Went Undercover to Expose America's Nazis

Code Name: Pale Horse

Both an epic history and an intimate family story, a startling account of the lives of Black cops in one Midwestern city. Amid the fervent protests over police killings in 2020, the reporter Wilbert L. Cooper returned to his hometown of Cleveland to profile the president of a Black police organization called the Black Shield. The group had aligned itself with activists calling for reform, but its president was notorious for having shot a young unarmed Black man years earlier. As Cooper explored the question of whether Black cops can create the kind of radical changes in policing that Black people are calling for, he was also welcomed by the members of the group in a different, more complicated capacity: as Sergeant Will Cooper's son. For Cooper, this assignment was personal. His parents are retired Black Cleveland cops; his sister was a Cleveland cop; on his mother's side, there has been a Cleveland cop in the family since 1950. In unearthing the dramatic histories of the Black Shield and his own family, Cooper tells the intertwined stories of the two: his relatives, whose lineage traces back to the Great Migration and who chose policing because it was one of the few stepping stones to economic security and status in a segregated city; and an organization that, over decades of cultural and political upheaval, has cycled endlessly between rebellion and acquiescence. An intimate, bold work of literary nonfiction, The Black Shield is an urgent exploration of the complex duality of the Black cop. Cooper grapples with a knot of contradictions: Is the Black officer a sign of progressive change, or of a system that shifts its appearance without changing its outcomes? How to reconcile the fact that policing helped lift his family out of poverty while it has kept its knee on the necks of his people? Fearless and singularly powerful, The Black Shield gives us an American story about race and power that has never been told before.
