The Onion Field by Joseph Wambaugh
The frighteningly true story of two young cops and two young robbers whose separate destinies fatally cross when a routine traffic stop leads to a bizarre execution in a deserted field outside Los Angeles
A complex story of tragic proportions..more ambitious than In Cold Blood and equally compelling - New York Times
Joseph Wambaugh served with the LAPD for fourteen years. His first novel, The New Centurions, was published in 1971 to international acclaim and success. He followed this with a series of highly acclaimed novels including The Choirboys and, of course, The Onion Field, which he then personally produced as one of the 'best cop movies ever made'. He also created the hugely popular and influential TV series, Police Story. He is a Grand Master of the Mystery Writers of America and lives in southern California.
