406: OFFICER NEEDS ASSISTANCE - Memoirs of a San Francisco Police Officer
In the tradition of "Blue Bloods" and "Dragnet," former San Francisco police officer Raymond Petersen has written a deeply affecting memoir of what it actually was like to be an on-the-street cop. From tragic and violent situations—to ones that are light-hearted and amusing—this book illuminates the profoundly human, true-crime situations Ray Petersen had to deal with for more than a decade on the streets of San Francisco. By reading these stories, readers will gain a profound new appreciation of the deepest meaning of “officer needs assistance.â€
406: Officer Needs Assistance nails it, accurately describing the fear, sorrow, anger,and anxiety that comes with working as a police officer. This book is a must-read!â€

“I could not put this book down! 406 teaches us to care for our police in the same way 'Saving Private Ryan' taught us to love and respect our American soldier.â€
