A MESSAGE FROM
RANDY SUTTON
 



"
If you want an adrenaline rush, forget about intricate mysteries and so-called thrillers. These pages bring to vivid reality the real stories of cops whose guts and glory are seldom seen and rarely heard."

- John Langley,
Creator of COPS


"If you want to enter the hearts and minds of the men and women sworn to protect us, read True Blue. These intimate episodes, written by the law officers who lived them, are funny, sad, moving, and powerful. With the proceeds going to those law enforcement families who lost a hero on 9/11, everybody should own this memorable book."

- Joseph Wambaugh, Author of
The Onion Field and Fire Lover

"I've been a Las Vegas cop for twenty-five years and I got a rush reading True Blue. This book achieves what all the police shows strive for, hard-hitting action combined with genuine emotion. The stories are real, the cops are heroes."

- Sheriff Bill Young, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.
