This book follows a former NYPD Housing cop, nicknamed Batman, as he gives the reader a graphic and authentic look at the wicked world of narcotics operations during his days patrolling some of America's meanest streets and high crime housing projects-- making undercover drug buys, combating vicious drug gangs and fighting violent criminals in order to keep honest citizens safe - before being betrayed by the corruption within his own department and thrown into a jail cell. Thron was a rising star in the NYC Housing PD during the era of the war on drugs in Upper Manhattan, conducting top secret undercover operations, squeezing snitches for information, and arresting criminals. Then in a split second, his career came crashing down during a buy and bust operation gone awry, becoming victim to the city's brutal police politics. Finding himself behind bars and betrayed by the job he loved and bled for, Thron switches gears to give a brutally honest portrait of a street cop serving his sentence among the criminals he once arrested in the New York penal system.
