Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Written by a former midnight shift police officer, this novel is based on the Miami River cops case.

Set in South Florida during the 1980s, this taut action packed novel takes the reader through the crime-ridden turbulent era when a group of young and veteran police officers employed aggressive and unconventional methods on the midnight shift.

Entwined with the realities of fighting crime and violence, the central character, Marcos Falcon, describes the dangers and adventures along with the bizarre and humorous wild antics of the close-knit crew. It takes you from the academy to patrol, through a major city riot and the famous multi-million dollar drug rip-off.

The exploits of the Renegade Crew are boundless.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great book, December 4, 2004

This review is from: Renegade Crew (Paperback)

Antonio Bustillo has done it again with another fantastic book. Having lived in Miami all my life I was more than familiar with the Miami River Cops scandal and followed it closely. Antonios book was exciting and I had trouble putting it down.

This book is a must have for anyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Take Me To The River", March 21, 2005

By	Michael Everett "Word Wizard" (North Carolina) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Renegade Crew (Paperback)

Books about cops are usually the same old re-hashed, ponderous stuff. "Renegade Crew" is the exception. It is fast-paced, action-packed and humorous all in one. The author allows the reader to feel empathy for any or none of the river cops in question. Whether you agree with how they went about arresting criminals or not, the story is different from any other cop book that is out there. Giving it even more credibility is the author who is a former police officer. "Renegade Crew" deserves five-stars. I did not want to put it down and I will be re-reading it again tonight. I'd like to read the sequel to see what ever happened to these guys. I wonder if they are swimming with the fish yet? Thank you for the opportunity to express my enjoyment of this book.
