Most gut-wrenching sounds stay with us longer than we'd like, and sometimes I can still close my eyes and hear those horrible screams, I've learned that this is just part of the job of a cop, much like combat soldiers who have experienced death and horror on the battlefield, but that understanding never made it any easier. Surviving a career in law enforcement involves a considerable amount of natural instinct, skill, luck, and intellect. Fortunately for Pat McCarthy, he possessed all of these, some more than others, at different times. Here are just a few of the stories that you'll read about in McCarthy's memoir Chicago Street Cop: Amazing True Stories from the Mean Streets of Chicago and Beyond; Learn what it feels like as McCarthy walk through the wreckage of the worst aviation disaster in America's history-American Airlines Flight #191-collecting bodies and body parts. Go behind the scenes as McCarthy, wired by the FBI, is bribed by an Asian organized crime figure to protect a secret Asian gambling den in Chicago's Chinatown. Get an insider's view into the unique life of a big city undercover cop as McCarthy buys drugs in a violent housing project controlled by gag members. Ride along with McCarthy's FBI squad as they try to stop a gang war in the aftermath of the shooting of a Vietnamese gang leader. Read about what it's like to be a SWAT team member in a two-day standoff with a cop killer. With a gritty and no-holds-barred narrative, Chicago Street Cop is a gripping and vivid reminder of the deadly risks and courageous choices that members of law enforcement face daily in their quest to keep the general public safe from harm.
