    About this ebook

    Two cops-- partners. They see it all: the good, the bad, and the stupid.

    Pete and Jim patrol the streets, handling all sorts of calls and dealing with all sorts of people. As senior officer, Pete often takes the lead, but Jim is shaping up to be a fine cop in his own right.
    Unfortunately, at the end of their shift, the officers face a situation that goes from bad to worse... resulting in the call that all law enforcement professionals hate to hear: “Officer down.”

    ***This novelette is 'slice-of-life' fiction, comprised of various vignettes in the lives of these characters. The stories are told in two different narrative forms.***
