Summary

Whether encouraging his cowering K-9 to reengage during a crime in progress or interviewing an unrepentant show molester, veteran cop Richard Greelis gives the reader a personal view of law enforcement that is sometimes hilarious and at other times painfully tragic. Copbook takes the reader on this fascinating ride-along for a taste of the human experience police are called to mitigate. Greelis draws on his career as a street cop, a SWAT team operator, a detective in both the Violent Crimes and Sex Crimes Units, a member of the FBI's Terrorism Unit, and an undercover intel investigator for the 2008 Republican National Convention. Greelis reveals the true heart of a cop, beating wildly at times, but always insulated within layers of blue. Book jacket.

Author Biography

Author Richard Greelis grew up in Robbinsdale, MN and had no interest in police work as a child. He graduated from the University of MN in 1980 and worked as a Realtor for a short period of time before entering the Police Skills Program. In 1981 he was hired by the Hennepin County Sheriffs Office as a Sheriff's Deputy, and after a short stint there was hired by the Bloomington Police Department.
