It is all here: the humorous, sad, tragic, violent and incredible, straight from the streets and highways of California from Yreka to the Mexican border. Plus Nuttall's eye-opening investigation of the unsolved D.B. Cooper skyjacking case. From walking foot beats as a rookie cop in San Diego's Skid Row to protecting President Ronald Reagan and the Queen of England during their historic meeting in Santa Barbara, Captain Nuttall tells what police work is really like as he observed and experienced it for 31 years during the greatest evolution of law enforcement in American History-on the San Diego Police Department and the California Highway Patrol.
Street cops inhabit a secretive world that few outsiders get to see. Beyond the high-speed pursuits, the shoot-outs and bloody crime scenes, there exists another world. A world of bored and mischievous cops who spend an entire shift dreaming up pranks to play on each other or unsuspecting citizens, lazy and incompetent cops whose efforts to avoid work are legendary and accident-prone cops whom other police avoid because of their talent for causing chaos and pandemonium wherever they go. And then there are the hapless crooks, a collection of losers, misfits and walking disasters whose pathetic attempts at crime makes you almost feel sorry for them. Just one shift with these crazy cops and the incredibly dumb crooks they arrest and you will go on a hilarious journey that never seems to end!

In the early 1980's, the St. Louis Region was controlled by the Chicago "outfit" controlled by Joey (Doves) Aiuppa. Joey (Doves) controlled all of the labor locals and most of the trade unions. He had considerable clout within local and state government due to union financial support of local politicians. Joey (Doves) guys in charge in St. Louis (John Vitale and Tony Giordano) became sick and old and the young guns in the region saw a chance to take over the rackets in the region. A Syrian family (Leisure (Paul and Anthony) decided to bomb a few of the "outfit's guys. One good car bombing begets another. It was chaos on the streets of St. Louis. The author was a detective in the prestigious Intelligence Unit of the police department. His job was to investigate (spy on) the organized criminals. His first hand account of what transpired in the St. Louis gang war is true and indisputable. The book contains crime scene photos, true names, and an index. It is nonfiction true crime at its finest.
The Grand Master of Mystery delivers “nerve-end-entertainment” when two of New York’s finest set out to become two of New York’s richest (Kirkus Reviews). Tom and Joe have been walking the beat on the mean streets of the Big Apple longer than they can remember—or care to. They’ve been good cops, protecting the public and holding the line against crime and chaos in a city that has plenty of both. And all they have to show for it is a whole lot of nothing. But now the partners have devised a scheme to make all their dreams come true: the perfect heist. Tom and Joe are going to rob the fat cats on Wall Street for millions and walk away clean. With the right connections and the proper execution, there’s no way their plan can fail. And that’s why they’re so surprised when everything goes totally, hysterically wrong . . . With Cops and Robbers, the three-time Edgar Award–winning author, named a Grand Master by the Mystery Writers of America, offers “another very hot and successful” novel with “a siren shrill finale” (Kirkus Reviews).

“A colorful and inventive adventure tale.”—Washington Post “It’s True Grit, New York style.”—New York Post “One of the best mystery novels of the year: wonderful and very entertaining.” —New York Journal of Books “Stewart deftly combines the rough-and-tumble atmosphere of early twentieth-century New York City with the story of three women who want to live life on their own terms.” —Library Journal, starred review In 1915, lady cops were not expected to chase down fugitives on the streets of New York City. But Constance Kopp never did what anyone expected. Constance and her sisters aren’t living the quiet life anymore. They’ve made headlines fighting back against a ruthless silk factory owner and his gang of thugs. After Sheriff Heath sees Constance in action, he appoints her as one of the nation’s first female deputies. But when a German-speaking con man threatens her position—and puts the honorable sheriff at risk for being thrown in his own jail—Constance will be forced to prove herself again. Based on the Kopp sisters’ real-life adventures, Girl Waits with Gun introduced the sensational lives of Constance Kopp and her sisters to an army of enthusiastic readers. This second installment, also ripped from the headlines, takes us farther into the riveting story of a woman who defied expectations, forged her own path, and tackled crime along the way. “A fast-moving, craftily written novel.”—BookPage “[An] irresistible madcap adventure.”—PopSugar “Stewart leaves the reader wondering about one mystery still developing unsolved . . . Readers will just have to wait—impatiently, no doubt—for book No. 3.”—Boston Globe
