I read this book in the late 1970s. It is a futuristic non-fiction book about a cop who goes undercover. From what I remember, it was in a city very much like New York. The cop is investigating a drugs ring who are called ‘narcs’ (for narcotics). He takes the drugs himself so that he can fit in. He videos what he witnesses and then analyses the footage later. The problems start when he becomes as irrational as the other narcs. He starts to analyse his own footage and wonders “what’s he doing now?”.
I don’t remember how it ends and I’ve spoken about this book to people over the years but no-one has heard of it. I remember the cover was multi-coloured neon.

Reminds me of A Scanner Darkly; see if that looks familiar.
