From the #1 New York Times bestselling authors of Walk in My Combat Boots: true-life stories from the men and women who protect and serve our homes, families and communities.

Protect

These men and women are our eyes. Our ears. Our protectors. Those who wear a badge, doing their best to help people.

Serve

These cops serve their communities. They serve their country. They’re in the business of saving lives—even at the risk of their own.

Defend

These patrol officers and K9 handlers, sheriffs and detectives, reveal what it’s really like to wear the uniform, to carry the weight of the responsibility they’ve been given.

This is a calling. This is the job.

Most people have no idea.

Wonderful stories of our nation’s finest

No one tells a better story than James Patterson. His nonfiction books are the best.

Good stories, voicing them so-so

Good material. Compelling stories. Wasn’t thrilled with the voice acting or some of the accents the actors tried. I felt this detracted from the gravitas of the material and that is really unfortunate.

Thrilling

Enjoyed each and every story and could relate to majority of them. Will put a lot of the information to use.

Amazing work!!!

I really appreciate the stories about the officers and some of their experiences. I wish more people could hear and understand what it takes to work in their field. Thanks!

Enjoyed it very much

It's hard to listen to this book and not appreciate the very difficult and dangerous work that these men and women face every day. My thanks to all of you for your service and devotion. We would be so screwed without you.

interesting collection of stories

I enjoyed hearing the real life stories from current and former cops. It helps show that they are real people. one of the narrators was very distracting with his fake southern accent. I almost didn't stick with the book but I am glad that I did!

too much and too long..

seems mental health is a bit frowned upon as to not want in files. smh..
long...didn't need so many short Stories.

I support Police officers

I already supported police officers before I listened to this book and now I am in awe of them. God Bless those that are of good rapport. Thank you for sharing your stories and for making this book possible.
