Eswaran M: Making of a Good Army Officer

Making of a Good Army Officer

Der Graf und der Clochard - zwei Männer, verbunden durch ein gemeinsames Geheimnis aus den Tagen der Fremdenlegion. Als
die Vergangenheit in ihr Leben zurückkehrt, geraten Liebe, Freundschaft und gesellschaftliche Fassaden ins Wanken.
Was als Begegnung zweier Gegensätze beginnt, wird zu einer Geschichte über Schuld, Loyalität und die späte Suche nach Familie.
Ein emotionaler Roman über das, was uns trennt - und das, was uns unauflöslich verbindet.

Zwischen Ehre und Verrat

Blutsbrüder

Major, L.N. Voyer, Surintendant De La Police Provinciale: Biographie

Tradd Street Press

"Fifty-Two Years a Policeman" offers a comprehensive and firsthand account of the evolution of law enforcement in Great Britain through the eyes of one of its most distinguished officers, Sir William Nott-Bower. Spanning over half a century, Nott-Bower's narrative provides an unparalleled look into the inner workings of the police force from the late Victorian era through the early 20th century. Having served in significant leadership roles, including the Commissioner of the City of London Police, the author recounts his experiences with clarity, detailing the shift from traditional methods to more modernized investigative techniques.The work explores a wide range of topics, including high-profile criminal cases, the management of public order during times of social unrest, and the administrative challenges of overseeing a major urban police force. Nott-Bower shares insights into the personalities of notable figures and the complexities of urban crime during a transformative period in British history. This memoir serves as both a personal reflection on a lifetime of service and a vital historical document for those interested in the development of the modern police system.

The Journey from Public Defender to FBI Director

Kash Patel

A Life Of Service, Sport, Loss and Survival

ONE LIFE, MANY UNIFORMS

The life expectancy of a police officer is devastatingly low; the average police officer lives to be 62 and this tragic statistic exists because we have not addressed the trauma our first responders experience on a daily basis. Our public safety agencies have failed our brave men and women by failing to provide a robust health and wellness program within their
departments. As the Baltimore City Police Department's first Director of Officer Safety and Wellness, I built a comprehensive health and wellness program that subsequently changed the lives of police officers and the
department as a whole.

The tools and methods of the program have the power to improve the resiliency of every police department around the country and inspire holistic changes for individuals everywhere. We measure our success by the number of officers who survive the grueling life of police work and don't become statistics upon retiring.

The Weight of the Badge

No other investigation across his entire FBI career would ever match the level of intensity, excitement, suspense, and drama of operation "Paesan Blues"—this book is the inside look at that undercover investigation centered on an Italian mafioso and his associates in Miami and Italy.

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.

An American Memoir of Family and Power

The Black Shield

A quiet village. A shared garden. A threat that arrives politely and grows impossible to ignore.When new neighbours move into the building next door, life in Marrowick begins to change in ways that are easy to dismiss and difficult to escape. Arguments bleed through walls. Police visits become routine. Fear settles slowly into a home already shaped by care, disability, and responsibility.As the situation escalates, a man who has always believed in calm, honesty, and proportion finds himself living on constant alert. Not violent, but vigilant. Not reckless, but permanently on guard. When a line is finally crossed, restraint itself becomes a risk.Next Door is a restrained, first-person account of prolonged neighbour conflict and the quiet erosion of safety. It explores how ordinary people are changed by sustained threat, how systems fail slowly, and what it costs to protect a family when walking away is not an option.Based on a true story. Readers interested in Adam's other work can explore his adult nonfiction and children's titles through his Author Page.

Based on a True Story of When Home Stops Being Safe

Next Door

#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.

Confessions of a Homicide Cop

The High Road

“American Shield is an all-American tale of duty and determination—beautifully told by an immigrant, a veteran, and a patriot.” —Nancy Pelosi, Speaker Emerita of the United States House of Representatives Set against the extraordinary events of January 6, 2021, Aquilino Gonell’s inspirational memoir is rooted in the joys and struggles of the immigrant experience that have long defined the American experiment Aquilino Gonell came to the United States from the Dominican Republic as a young boy. Although he spoke no English, he dedicated himself to his adopted land, striving for the American dream. Determined to be a success story, he joined the army to pay for college. He saw action in Iraq and returned home with PTSD. Believing in the promise of our government, he focused on healing himself and supporting his family. His hard work paid off when he landed a coveted position with the United States Capitol Police and rose to the rank of sergeant. January 6, 2021, changed everything. When insurrectionists stormed the Capitol, Gonell bravely faced down the mob attempting to thwart the peaceful transfer of power. The brutal injuries he sustained that day would end his career in law enforcement. But when some of the very people he put his life on the line to protect downplayed or denied the truth of that day, he chose to speak out against the injustice done to him and the country. Chronicling what it means to live a life of conviction, one that adheres to the best ideas of our democracy, American Shield is a bold testament to the power of truth, justice, and accountability from a highly decorated officer and immigrant who exemplifies the greatest aspirations of a grateful nation.
