O'Brien L: RAISING FIRE IGNITING
RESILIENCE AND BECOMING WHOLE

RAISING FIRE IGNITING RESILIENCE AND BECOMING WHOLE

For more than two decades, Jimmy Dennedy, a cop's cop, served the people of New York City as a member of the NYPD. First as a uniformed officer working the streets in some of the toughest crime ridden neighborhoods in his home borough of Brooklyn. Then in the NYPD narcotics division, dealing with the worst of the worst who were infesting the streets of the city with the poison that destroyed lives. And finally as a detective in the NYPD-FBI Joint Terrorist Task Force, doing just what the name says, chasing down those whose mission was to destroy the way of life of New Yorkers.When he retired from law enforcement, Dennedy found a different calling. He established a prison ministry. For 25 years, in both Otisville Federal Penitentiary, and Shawangunk State Prison he practiced his ministry touching the soul and conscience of men like those he locked up during his days in the NYPD. For those he counseled with prison time still to be served, he turned their lives around so they could do their time in peace. And for those who had the good fortune of being released, his guidance provided the foundation upon which they built productive, crime free lives.The story of Jimmy's journey from Brooklyn's toughest cop to his prison ministry needed to be shared with the world. Hard Guys Cry tells that story!

Four years later, Beth Holloway steps forward to tell the story of her daughter's disappearance and her own harrowing ordeal—and her never-ending belief in the power of faith that gave her hope against all odds.When Natalee went missing, her photograph was splashed across newspaper front pages and television screens from coast to coast.

Loving Natalee is a shocking, tragic, yet poignant chronicle of an unthinkable event and its aftermath—and the inspiring true story of a mother's strength, courage, devotion, and unwavering love. How does a mother survive the unthinkable? <ul><li>A Mother’s Fight for Justice: Follow the agonizing, moment-by-moment search for Natalee in Aruba as Beth confronts uncooperative officials, misinformation, and terrifying roadblocks at every turn.</li><li>The Inside Story: Go behind the international headlines to learn the devastating details of the investigation that the public never knew.</li><li>Hope Against All Odds: A powerful testament to the unwavering faith that sustained a family through their darkest days and fueled a search that never ended.</li><li>A True Crime Memoir: A raw, unforgettable account of a parent’s worst nightmare, told with courage, honesty, and a mother’s unbreakable love.</li></ul>

A Mother's Testament of Hope and Faith

Loving Natalee

"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"--

My Fight to Change Policing in America

An Inconvenient Cop

Reading Rough Streets, Tough Skies, and Sunday Sidelines, readers may need to be reminded that it is a true story. From Larry Wansley’s days as a young police detective, dodging bullets while attempting to calm the Compton (California) race riots to his leadership of a staff that identified the 9/11 hijackers, this globally respected security figure has written an action-packed recollection of his foot-to-the-pedal career. As one of the FBI's first long-term undercover agents, Wansley aided with the search for kidnapped Patty Hearst and once organized a sting operation that resulted in the recovery of $42 million in stolen property. He used so many aliases that at times he had trouble remembering who he was supposed to be. While serving as Global Security Director for American Airlines, he coordinated the numbing turmoil that came in the wake of the 9/11 tragedy and walked among those searching Ground Zero. He dealt with drug cartels, arms smugglers, a shoe bomb, and more than a few Mafia wiseguys. During his tenure as Director of Security for the Dallas Cowboys, he shielded legendary Cowboys coach Tom Landry from a potential sniper hidden in the Monday Night Football crowd and spent a summer serving as pop singer Whitney Houston's bodyguard during her European tour. Written with two-time Edgar Award winner Carlton Stowers, Wansley’s autobiography runs the emotional gamut from terrifying to heartbreaking to laugh-out-loud funny with the dangerous and high drama situations that are often only found in fiction.

Six Years on the Border

COPE OR DIE

This is a true story about a street cop and the challenges he faced while trying to deal with the pitfalls and tragedies of life. The author of this "tell all" book writes of his experiences on the streets during years within the Law Enforcement community. Sometimes embarrassing, sometimes hilarious, and often raw. It's about the lifestyle, the addictive lure of the chase, and the emotional and physical costs endured along the way. The author uses some of the actual cases and real-world situations he encountered while pursuing his dreams and that elusive peace we all need so desperately. In all walks of life, we must learn to either cope or die. Follow Louis Schwiebert down the path to discover "the missing link." My name is Louis J. Schwiebert. I was born in California and went to Cuesta College and Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. My careers were in Law Enforcement and consulting. My hobbies are working-out at the gym and firearms training. Finding Jesus brought me to Christian ministry work 28 years ago and was the inspiration for my book.

A Memoir of a Scotland Yard Detective

Where the Evidence Takes Us

When pressure peaks, the leaders who prevail are not the loudest or the most forceful. They are the most prepared, most precise, and most trusted. Learn how to steady a team, move people from resistance to decisive action, and protect performance when the stakes are highest. In Shaping Chaos, West Point graduate Kyle Vowinkel distills hard-won lessons from the Army and the FBI’s elite Hostage Rescue Team (HRT) and Crisis Negotiation Unit (CNU) into a cohesive leadership operating system. One of only five people in FBI history to serve on both HRT and CNU, Vowinkel takes readers inside missions where failure could be fatal, and translates those disciplines into tools for boardrooms, crises, and high-consequence environments. Shaping Chaos alternates between vivid stories and concrete, repeatable tools These stories drop readers into real-world operations, from the Boston Marathon bombing manhunt to one of the FBI’s most complex kidnapping operations and other critical incidents. Even-numbered chapters then convert those experiences into practices leaders can apply immediately, anchored in Vowinkel’s Prime, Predict, Prevail framework: <ul> <li>Prime: Steady yourself and the team, unify intent, and clarify ownership and decision lanes before time compresses your options.</li> <li>Predict: Read the human, strategic, and emotional terrain, define best, most likely, and worst outcomes, map key levers and pathways, and set triggers and responses before the moment cuts off your options.</li> <li>Prevail: Design clear plans of action, advance through friction with agility, and execute decisively when conditions align.</li> </ul> When the storm arrives, leaders rarely rise to the occasion. They fall to their level of preparation. Shaping Chaos helps you build that foundation now, so you can lead with unflinching clarity, calm courage, and disciplined execution when it matters most.

Leadership Lessons Forged in the FBI's Most Dangerous Operations

Shaping Chaos

#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.

Hands Up; or, Thirty-Five Years of Detective Life in the Mountains and on the Plains

"From 1994 to 2000, when South Africa was a young democracy, the country was stalked by a succession of brutal serial killers. Psychologist Micki Pistorius became the first profiler for the South African Police Service, playing a vital role in identifying and interrogating these killers, as well as training detectives nationally and in other countries. She broke ground with her theory on the origin of serial killers and is considered a trailblazer in her field, Catch me a killer details the cases she worked on--from the Station Strangler and the Phoenix Cane Killer to Boetie Boer and the Saloon Killer. The book also features legendary detectives such as Piet Byleveld and Suiker Britz, as well as the FBI's Robert Ressler."--Provided by publisher.
