The Irish Detective in Yorkshire by Gerry O'Shea.    Real Life - True Crime by a real cop.

Imagine for a moment, you are going about your normal daily business, maybe shopping or going to work.   You hear some noise and a commotion ahead of you.  You see figures running away from the commotion and others running towards it.  People are screaming and shouting.  Some are crying and others in shocked silence.   As you get to the scene you now see a man who is obviously dead with a vicious knife wound to his throat.  A woman lying on the ground nearby is screaming in pain having also suffered a violent attack.

Ok back to reality now......you were only imagining this horrendous event.  If it had been a reality no doubt it would have greatly disturbed you and preyed on your mind for a long time - even causing you sleepless nights.  

But what about someone who has to deal with such serious crime on a regular basis.  What's it like, how do they cope, what are their thoughts.

This book gives a unique insight into the life and work of Irishman Gerry O'Shea - a real top detective as he deals with real life serious crime and chronicles his way through a 32 year police career from the 70's to the present day.

5 star review - "A great book, I couldn't put it down."
