Reseña del libro "Boot: An LAPD Officer's Rookie Year (en Inglés)"
In this true-crime thriller, a young police officer takes you inside the real LAPD, the one where hard-working, sometimes all-too-human beat cops battle to protect and serve. To accomplish this, they must navigate gang infested projects, low rent motels, and junkie plagued alleys that are occupied by dangerous, oftentimes colorful, criminals. South Central Los Angeles, as seen through the eyes of Dunn, is a volatile, constantly changing landscape. To be a good cop, and survive the experience, Dunn quickly learns from veteran beat cops what it is like to try to lay down the law. Dunn's dispatches from the frontlines are dramatic, humorous and shocking. Every day there is another drive-by shooting, high-speed chase, or bizarre situation to be dealt with. Those landscapes that Dunn encounters are prowled by infamous gangs such as the Crips, the Bloods, and the notorious La Mara Salva Trucha gang, better known as MS-13. Dunn offers compelling insights into the challenges facing the young street cop today.. This is an effective, forceful report.
