Peaches & Snitches [Paperback]

Michael Cordoni (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 3, 2002

A tactless, devastatingly honest and furiously witty sergeant will take you on a back-seat ride to show you how the crime-solving business always takes care of itself while his not so private business leaves you wondering whether you ever wanted to know all that much about the people sworn to serve and protect. Sergeant Dresdin, our conflicted wanna-be hero, freely sheds his cape and bare-nakedly chases after a killer and the one thing that threatens his case and his humanity: his partner's love.

4.0 out of 5 stars How the real cops do their work?, April 22, 2005

This review is from: Peaches & Snitches (Paperback)

I didn't know what to expect when I started to read this book. Once I started I couldn't stop. The book sets the tone in the first chapter and never looks back. A very fast paced book I couldn't put down until it was over. The story gives the reader an inside look at how things get done when things get messed up. The book gets very graphic in a couple of areas but this only lends to the credibility of the story. The "scenes" are done out of respect for the Book and add to it. I liked Peaches very much and would reccomend this book to just about anyone.

4.0 out of 5 stars A World of corruption within the police force without malice, December 7, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Peaches & Snitches (Paperback)

Mr Cordini writes this book as if he dosen't care how the the reader will react when one reads the first few pages of this book. I was in total shock. The readings will take you stright to biggest jail in america if you follow any of the malice that this book has to offer. My advice is to spread vasaline around your wrist because you won't get out of the handcufs that will be holding you when you attempt to take a break from the book. The main character has a love afair with foul police tactics but for some reason his partner is very loyal to him. It took me about 3 weeks to read and I really was suprised by the way some cops really are if they are not getting the "cat out of the tree for the little ole lady". Although some of the language is not very healthy I still managed to sift through it and I can actually say it is a well drafted book. Beware!!! If you never read a book of this nature, I advise you to put on your sunshades, some of that vasaline that I mentioned and some knee pads because this book will burn a hole in your Christian sole.
