The Blue Knight by Joseph Wambaugh
"A cop's-eye view of police brutality . . . courage and compassion . . . fascinating."--The New York TimesHe's big and brash. His beat is the underbelly of Los Angeles vice--a world of pimps, pushers, winos, whores and killers. He lives each day his way--on the razor's edge of life.
He was a damn good cop and LAPD detective. For fifteen years he prowled the streets, solved murders, took his lumps. Now he's the hard hitting, tough talking best selling writer who tells the brutal, true stories of the men who risk their loves every time a siren screams.
"Wambaugh has captured the excitement, terror, pity, and occasional tedium of police work in a bang-up job of writing."--The Boston Globe
Former LAPD detective sergeant Joseph Wambaugh is the popular author of seventeen previous novels and nonfiction books, including The Choirboys and The Onion Field. The Mystery Writers of America recognized him Grand Master in 2004. He resides in the state of California.
