He rose to the rank of Inspector, serving the local community over four decades, before an encounter with an American Pit-bull Terrier prematurely ended his career. This book reveals John's early life growing up after losing his father in early life. It offers a fascinating look into the life of a young constable and dealing with an horrific murder scene and the terrible events of The Hillsborough Disaster.
