There's so much more to a police officer's badge that all first responders wear. But that's what the world sees. What's behind and beyond that badge is what people need to know-the person. Those behind the badge may wear a different uniform, but they too have families and love their communities. Each one faces all that life has to offer.

Life Behind the Badge is the real story behind law enforcement, written by a veteran police officer. Although similar to the life of a cop, this story has all the excitement of the chases and takedowns that Tinseltown emphasizes. Sergeant Doug Driver also shows you the struggle to be a cop in today's world of lawsuits, political correctness, and public scrutiny. The private life of a public servant can be hard. It's easier to take a criminal off the streets than it is to keep a marriage together. Harsh hours, low pay, stress, and the trauma of seeing the cold hard truths of life take their toll. But every day, in every town in America, men and women put on the badge and sacrifice a part of themselves in order to serve Justice. This is the story of one man's Life Behind the Badge.

Behind My Badge is a spellbinding story of courage, commitment, and unwavering faith. Captain Mike Rossman takes us behind the scenes of the City of Miami Fire Department over a period of 30 years of service. As his hard-won promotions take him from rookie to Battalion Captain, he tells us what it's really like to be a firefighter or paramedic on a Rescue crew - from learning how to lay a hose or hook a ladder to departmental policies like "skipping." Whether he and his men are responding to a multi-alarm fire, rushing to a riot scene, saving the life of a cardiac arrest patient, delivering a child, or treating a horse, they have to count first on each other. Captain Rossman's stories are honest compassionate, often inspirational, and interlaved with the wry humor born of facing danger on a daily basis.

What do you do when one of your friends is murdered? Not only murdered, but she was murdered by your other friend, (her ex husband) who also happened to be your childhood hero. This isn't just another book about OJ Simpson, it is the full story of a man who found himself in the middle of a dark tunnel that seemed to have no end. After years of guilt, lies, and betrayal, Ron battled back and forth whether or not to tell his story, in fear of losing his credibility. Twenty-two years later, he felt it was time for his story to be told. The Heart Behind the Badge is a memoir that outlines the life and events that led up to him testifying against one of his friends in what would be known as The Trial of the Century. Not one of his 15 years on the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) could have prepared him for what he was about to face.
