Summary
After the Force is a unique and intriguing book where stories are told from the perspective of first contact at crime scenes as observed by police officers who have served in municipal, provincial, and federal police services.
In recent years, many police agencies and officers have come under fire for unprofessional or unethical policing methods. This collection clearly displays another side to law enforcement; the human side. Among the stunning themes in the book are stories dealing with prostitution and sex work, racism and misogyny, an encounter with a cop killer, suicides, a child miraculously surviving a fall from a high-rise balcony, an officer dealing with a partner who was experiencing severe PTSD, child sexual assaults, and dangerous encounters with the mafia.
This is Book 8 in the Durvile True Cases Series.

Critic reviews
"Emotions, frustrations and challenges associated to maintaining composure in heart wrenching situations are shared in many of the stories.” (Myra James, Retired Detective Hamilton Police Service; Past President, Ontario Women In Law Enforcement)
"However fervently storytellers of the entertainment industry attempt to truthfully convey the reward and toll of a life in law enforcement, few approach the heart swelling and heart breaking accounts authored by the very people who lived them." (Gregory Jbara, Actor, CBS Police Drama BlueBloods)
"After the Force goes deep, offering indelible details that humanize heroes and provide a glimpse into what police officers are left with beyond the badge: traumatic memories, heartache and hope for humanity." (Sherri Zickefoose, Investigative Reporter)
