Description
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.
