Summary
A memoir, following the true story of Wendy Wilkins as she joins the police force, a naive 20-year-old cop in Melbourne, Australia and discovers many firsts: her first arrest, murder, dead body, love, cop culture and a #metoo moment.... The good the bad and the ugly of life as a cop in Melbourne Australia in the late '80s/early '90s.
A fast-paced and entertaining listen with some wonderful characters who just happen to be real. A peek inside the gritty underbelly of Melbourne's police world, through the lens of a young female cop. Wendy navigates this new world, while falling in love and being sexually awakened herself.
Vignettes in the style of Candace Bushnell's Sex and the City novella.
