Les Éditions JCL To Serve and Protect: Memoirs of a Deeply Human Police Officer
From a young age, we hear about police officers and the important role they play in society. Whether we esteem them or fear them, their work fascinates and intrigues. Yet, this profession is one of the least understood by the general public. Why is that? Probably because we often only see one side of the coin and forget the human being behind the uniform... Darcy Lavallée served the Rouyn-Noranda Municipal Police and the Sûreté du Québec as a patrol officer and criminal investigator for nearly thirty years. In this fascinating account, he recounts twenty-five stories that have marked his career. While some are comical or unusual, others are moving, sometimes even shocking. Through these colorful stories, Darcy Lavallée opens a window onto his thoughts, sharing with us his fears, frustrations, misunderstandings, and emotions. He invites us to meet a deeply human police officer, carrying a heavy burden on his back, yet proud of his duty accomplished.

Les Éditions JCL Identity unknown
Dr. Kay Scarpetta is called to a very strange crime scene: in a spooky abandoned amusement park, a body with curiously red skin has been found in the center of a crop circle of petals. Horrified, she discovers that the victim is none other than a man she once loved, Sal Giordano. For Kay's niece, Lucy, the geometric shape leaves no doubt: the astrophysicist was thrown into the void from the top of an unidentified flying object. The authorities, meanwhile, question the scientist's loyalty to his nation and the debate rages. But when the autopsy reveals a clue that her former lover seems to have intentionally left for her, the head of the forensic institute sees an explanation that is both simpler, and far more terrifying...
