This book is about my days as a rookie on the Los Angeles Police Department. I worked morning watch, which is really graveyard. I saw and experienced different things. No two nights were exactly alike. I saw how police were when no supervisor was around. I saw how police talk about one another behind their backs. They were very self-centered, and some didn't care to hear backup calls. At code 7 (lunchtime), some would turn off their rovers so as not to hear distress calls. They didn't want to be disturbed. This book is based primarily on these facts. Only a few things have been changed.
