No Lights, No Sirens
The Corruption and Redemption of an Inner City Cop
by Robert Cea
No Lights, No Sirens takes a first-hand look at the experience of a New York City police officer in one of
the worst neighborhoods in Brooklyn. Robert Cea faces drugs and crime on the nasty streets of Brooklyn while trying
to balance the needs of his partner and life outside of the police force. How far will this officer go in order to
get the big arrests?
Robert Cea, since he experienced it first-hand, clearly shows what levels police officers will get to in order
to "collar" the head people in the drug world. Mr. Cea is able to show the mindset of an officer when he is trying
to arrest the people that he knows are behind certain crimes and the damage that it sometimes does to normal human
relationships.
This reader felt that from the time Cea was a rookie cop to the present, there was no time when he was willing
to do things that were against the law in order to make the big arrests. However, it was tremendously brave of him
to admit where and when he went wrong in his life and career and to write about it. |
