The Mammoth Book of Undercover Cops

by Paul Copperwaite

This collection presents edgy revelations and revealing first-hand accounts, many of them from the kinds of stories that don't always make the news, including the inspirations for popular TV dramas such as The Wire . Terrorists, criminal gangs, drug-dealing lawyers, solitary psychos, and serial-killer suspects all feature as the intended targets in these cops' tales. A good read for fans who love action, conspiracy, and good old-fashioned police stories!

[Thelma Gabbett · Rating 2 out of 5]

The name of this book is very deceptive u think you are getting inside detail of how an undercover officer workers but to me this was just a true crime book in parts and in other ways details of the failure of police.

[Jelina · Rating 3 out of 5]

Various writing styles and info dumps makes this is an educational but difficult read. It would benefit from an index as a way to keep facts and figures clear.
