Story
The police force can be a tough place for a woman, but Detective Superintendent Deborah Wallace rose to the top with grace, humour and an iconic sense of style. In her incredible 36-year career with NSW Police, Wallace took on murderers and drug suppliers and dismantled the state's most nefarious gangs. Tenacious, perceptive and sharp, Wallace commanded a range of police crime squads, bringing order to the Wild West of 1990s Cabramatta and busting criminal bikie gangs with Strike Force Raptor until her retirement in late 2019.

Story
Emily Webb, co-host of the popular Australian True Crime podcast, details chilling cases of murder and crime that have happened in the quiet streets of Australia's suburbs. Featuring contemporary cases as well as some shocking historical murders you've probably never heard of, Suburban True Crime proves you shouldn't say 'it could never happen here'. This collection of cases that are hard to believe, except they really happened—and all in the streets and homes of the Australia many of us know and live. The suburbs.

Story
In an incredible 25-year career as a homicide detective, Ron Iddles' conviction rate was 99 percent. Yet that only partly explains why Iddles is known to cops and crims alike as 'The Great Man'. Tough, inventive and incorruptible, stoic in the face of senseless horror yet unafraid to shed tears for a victim, Ron has applied his country cunning and city savvy to over 320 homicide cases - some of them the most infamous, compelling and controversial crimes in the nation's history. To the victims of crime, Ron is both a shoulder to cry on and an avenging angel.

Story
Dorothy Davis and Kerry Whelan were both happy, healthy, affluent, middle-class women from conservative, loving families. Such women are hardly ever among the ranks of the missing. They were not hitchhikers, or associates of drug dealers, or unhappy with their family relationships, or suffering from mental health issues. Dorothy Davis and Kerry Whelan came from different parts of Sydney, mixed in quite different circles, and led completely different lives.

Story
The Sting takes you on a journey behind Australia's most sensational undercover bust, revealing extraordinary new details. It is a shocking insight into one of the country's most evil killers, and the operation that brought him down. The disappearance of Queensland schoolboy Daniel Morcombe was one of the most heartbreaking and confounding child abduction and murder cases of the century, spanning almost a decade prior to the eventual arrest of known paedophile Brett Peter Cowan, one of the original persons of interest.

Publisher's Summary
“What’s it really like to be a cop?”
Have you or a loved one always wondered what it is really like to be a cop? Want to know what it takes to be a police officer and what you will face? Would you like to be a little more street smart, think like a cop, and stay ahead of the pack?
This action-packed, and eye-opening book will take you on a wild ride and show you the dark side of human nature. You will also learn the 25 life lessons I learned from 15 years of being a cop, that you can implement into your own life today.
Maybe you are just intrigued by policing, even if you have never wanted to be a cop. This book will tell it like it is; no B.S., no exaggeration, and nothing is off limits. If you or someone you love are still unclear about joining the force, then this book will outline what you can expect.
Good Cop Girl Cop will bust myths and misconceptions about policing, challenging everything you’ve been told about it. It is not watered down; it is not sugar-coated - just the plain, simple, and shocking truth.
In this book you will discover:
- Elements of human nature that will open your eyes and help keep you safe.
- What it takes to be a cop and how you can start thinking like a cop.
- Myths, misconceptions, and common questions answered.
- 25 life lessons from law enforcement that you can use in your life today.
I guarantee you will learn something, and you will be entertained. If you do nothing else, you can use any one of my 25 life lessons and put it into action right now.
A word of caution, this book is not for the faint of heart, as it does contain coarse language, some sexual content, and graphic tales that may offend some listeners. Although this book targeted at the girls, it is not sweet, nor is it coming from a feminist angle, so it is also an awesome listen for the guys.
Don’t become a crime statistic. Stay safe, know what it’s like to be a police officer, understand the criminal world, and learn how to start thinking like a cop today.
**WARNING**
This book contains very coarse language, some sexual content, real life stories and examples of police work, that some people may find offensive or disturbing. It is not intended to be for shock value, but for educational purposes.
Listener discretion is advised.

Not just another cop story.
Having served as a police officer in the same area as the author I found the storytelling relatable and interesting.
Most stories written by officers that I've read relate to well know cases and how the lead investigator struggled to arrest the bad guy. This represents a small percentage of policing. Having the story told from this perspective give a more real impression of what it might be like to join the force. I gave a copy to my cousin when she was talking about joining the police.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!
I love how raw and honest Lisa is throughout this whole book. I am pursuing a career to be a police officer and this is the exact insight I’ve been searching for and I’m so thankful I found this book.
I strongly believe if your looking into starting a career as a police officer you take the time to listen to this and digest it. I’ve learnt so much from the book and I cannot wait for her to release as second book.
Good Cop Girl Cop is now my favourite book, you’ve outdone yourself, you’ve done such a great job!!!
