True Blue An Insider's Guide to Street Cops for Writers Author:Lynda Sue Cooper The world of law enforcement is a subculture unto itself, with different codes of conduct, jargon, body language, and social mores. In True Blue, Lynda Sue Cooper answers the question, "What's It Like?" for those of you who are dedicated enough to the craft of fiction writing to want to get it right. Though outsiders are not usuall... more »y embraced amongst the blue brotherhood, True Blue jimmies the door a bit so you may gain entrance into this closed society, step over that line, and get a feel for what it's like:

*Working the streets, responding to calls, investigating crimes
*Going through the academy and field training
*Wearing a badge, handcuffing someone, losing a case, helping a child
