Long since retired, John spent years embroiled in some of the seediest, scariest intrigue and escapades imaginable. Paul, however, is something of an artsy, sensitive soul who can't understand why he doesn't have the same heroism and courage as his dad. One day, John offers Paul the chance of a lifetime- he'll spill his guts, on tape, for the first time ever, and try to get to the bottom of this difference between them.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e What unfolds is a goldmine of true-crime stories, showing John's dramatic (and sometimes dodgy) experience of policing in Sydney in the 1980s. The crims, the car chases, the frequent brushes with death and violence, and the grey zone between what's ethical and what's effective- finally Paul gets real insight into what's formed his father's character.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Thrilling, fascinating and often laugh-out-loud funny, \u003ci\u003eLoose Units\u003c\/i\u003e is a high-octane adventure in policing, integrity and learning what your father is \u003ci\u003ereally\u003c\/i\u003e all about.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Biography \u0026amp; memoir, Personal Memoirs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Random House Australia\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780143783169\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Verhoeven, Paul","offers":[{"title":"Poor Condition — £27.21","offer_id":48027890385073,"sku":"SB-0143783165-C4","price":27.21,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/0143783165.jpg?v=1791939662","url":"https:\/\/sellbooks.co.uk\/products\/loose-units","provider":"Sell Books .co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
