The Battle Behind The Badge

Rating:
Summary: Patrol the streets of Kansas City with Captain Bob Heinen.
Review: "The Battle Behind the Badge" takes you on the streets of Kansas City with Captain Heinen as your partner. BEWARE! On your shift you'll not only encounter dangerous street thugs, but high-powered organized crime figures. When you return to the station house to file your reports, be prepared to battle corrupt police officials and egocentric city hall politicians. "The Battle Behind the Badge" is an excellent hardball account of Kansas City during a time when it was difficult to tell who the bad guy was. Captain Heinen is an honest cop who pays for his integrity by being yo-yoed up and down the ranks. He is Kansas City's "Serpico." This is a very good read that took a lot of guts to write.

Summary: It would make a good movie

Review: It's about someone who cares more about doing a good job then worrying about how much money he can make. If it wasn't easy to verify his many far out actions it would seem like fiction. He takes lots of chances.
