The book used by Thandie Newton to research her part in Line of
Duty. A lone policewoman disarms a knife-wielding schizophrenic;
two officers drag a woman from a railway line seconds before an
express train roars past; an undercover cop clings onto the bonnet
of a drug-dealer's car as it speeds through a busy town centre.
These are just some of the ways Britain's police officers are daily
called upon to demonstrate bravery in the line of duty when even
the most routine call can turn into a life-or-death situation and
split-second judgements can make all the difference. Sometimes
officers make the ultimate sacrifice in fulfilling their duty. When
PC Bill Parker was swept to his death by floodwaters in Cumbria in
2009, he had been working to save stranded motorists from the same
fate. This thrilling collection of first-person accounts of true
courage celebrates the sustained bravery and presence of mind
routinely displayed by so many officers in England, Wales and
Scotland. The stories also reveal an insider's view of the culture,
training and techniques police officers use in carrying out their
duties.
