According to the book description of Twenty, "is an exceptional
and noteworthy compilation of police stories that range from the humorous, to
the deadly, to the somber. At times unbelievable, but always memorable, TWENTY
shows cops as they really are, through the eyes of a retired 22 year veteran. It
is a hard-hitting, no-holds-barred account of policing that pulls no punches as
it takes the reader through Patrol, Detectives, Narcotics, Internal Affairs, and
Supervision in the Las Cruces, New Mexico, Police Department. From cops and
their domestics, to drinking and philandering, to tremendous acts of courage and
shameful cowardice, whether you love cops or hate them, TWENTY will leave you
laughing, saddened, shaking your head, and asking why anyone would endeavor to
suit up, pin on a badge, and work the streets."
