Number one best-selling author C. L. Swinney has been a cop for almost fourteen years, ranging in assignments from patrol to undercover narcotics. The things cops do and see are certainly not for the faint of heart. We develop a sick sense of humor, but only to rationalize the fact that we risk our lives for strangers (some who wish us dead), enforce the law, and pray we go home to our loved ones at the end of our shift. Some wearing a badge drink or use drugs to cope, even go as far as taking their own lives. Others are heavy-handed or get caught stealing. C.L. Swinney chooses to write to deal with the stress of the profession. The poetry found within this collection is rough, sometimes unstructured, and may not suit all readers. However, it soundly portrays what it means to wear a badge and to serve and protect. As with all of his other work, C. L. Swinney will donate the overwhelming majority of the proceeds from this collection to the families of fallen officers and military members.

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Crushing Tin By Theresa Atashkar Another great book by Chris Swinney! You never really know what someone else's job or life is about until you have a chance to walk in their shoes. This book of poems and prose allows you to walk in the shoes of a police officer and it isn't pretty.There is so much in the news these days about bad cops, and as usual the stories about good cops are few and far between. If you take the time to read this you will see what goes on--on a daily basis on the police officers shift. It was heart wrenching thing for me, I can not imagine trying to save a child's life or pull a dead body out of the ocean.Thank you Chris for giving us the flipside of the story and thank you for the work you do to keep people safe from harm.
2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. The dark thoughts By Ken Wow! I really don't know what to say. I guess I can start by saying that as with most Americans we seldom have a police or military person in our lives and as such don't really appreciate the dark thoughts they live with each and every day. C.L. Swinney brings those dark thoughts to life showing readers that cops ARE real people too. They get up have breakfast, kiss the wife and kids good-bye and go to work hoping each and everyday that this day will not be he last. In this day and age with everything going on around us being a cop can be the toughest job out there. There are predators out there just wanting to make a score. They know nothing will happen - not with the liberal media on their side. That thin blue still has to respond to the call, keeping their head on a swivel knowing full well every movement will be recorded and upload to the world to see after proper editing of course. In this book Chris - with his poems and prose - attempts to release some of that pressure the he and all police endure. I did chuckle at the gallows humor police use in the locker room. Well Chris, I have to tell you, when there is trouble outside my door I am calling a cop knowing things will get better. For the rest of you, if there is trouble call a gang member.
