About this listen

As an undercover police officer with the drugs squad, Neil Woods regularly risked his life on the streets, dealing with some of the most violent and unpredictable criminals in Britain.

Good Cop, Bad War is a unique story about a man with a striking ability to infiltrate and extinguish drug gangs but who, as the success of his operations grows, becomes disillusioned with the war on drugs, as he sees how it demonizes those who need help whilst empowering the very worst elements in society. This is an action-packed true-account listen like no other.

A fantastic book, well written and narrated, i would highly recommend. If we could get the world to listen to this book then I have no doubt that a huge number of minds would be changed on the 'war' on drugs and people would see the damage it is doing to our society.

Excellent insight

A wise old head with a bunch of great tales. Brilliant exciting and thought provoking stuff. Works both as entertainment and a furious political tract. If you can judge a book by how many people you want to buy it for as a present after reading then this passes my 6 present test. An important gripping book. Full disclosure: I'm a bit of hippy and legalising drugs has always been a firm belief of mine. But this guy isn't wolly. He's analytical and has the life experience to eloquently support his arguments. There are parts of this book that really upset me, and other where you get a cop v gangster thrill, but it's his humane and moral view of what is right and wrong which sticks. He is a man clearly haunted and feeling guilty from the things he's done, but also full of hope. Just bloody ace. Excellent unobtrusive narration too (except for the Jamaican/brummy accents near the end haha!)

Worth a punt - you won't be disappointed!

Brilliant

What an extraordinary journey! All the more amazing, as it is all true. Get a taste of the tension of the hair raising adventures of an undercover cop. Hear stories of addiction and organised crime as you've never heard them before and an extraordinary personal journey.

Brilliant, funny, informative, not to be missed.
