Review\nCop Tales 2000 is the real deal. The voices and the lives of real cops--sometimes funny, sometimes dark, often adrenaline-drenched and always full of hard-won knowledge--shine from these pages. Real cops--and real writers, too. -- SJ Rozan, author of Stone Quarry\nDuring my 35 years in law enforcement, I have often said that if you could be so fortunate as to be exposed to police officers and the tales they could and would tell if given the opportunity, you would be in the presence of potential literary magnificence, if not Pulitzer material. 
Cop Tales 2000 has made me a prophet. The intelligence, humor and litereary ability of these writers displayed so brilliantly by the publishers has made be proud to be a part of both professions. -- Joe Coffey, author of The Vatican Connection, Winner of the 1982 Edgar Allen Poe Award, and The Coffey Files, 1992 Edgar Allen Poe Award Nominee

This book, I Pledge Allegiance... and includes stories based on their individual feelings, knowledge and experiences as former military personnel, first responders or police officers. These true-life accounts of Heroism, Patriotism, belief in the American dream, of survival and sacrifice. These stories of heroism and patriotism, maybe not from the people themselves, but by the Wednesday Warrior Writers who remember what they did. This Las Vegas based writing group of civil servants-turned-writers, the Wednesday Warrior Writers, became inspired from a member’s personal story of her grandson’s death serving in Iraq and his final journey home in the arms of his father with members of her writing group. It made such an impact that they decided to compile an anthology of over fifty stories to celebrate American valor, heroism and patriotism - written by authors: Merle Savage (the grandmother who inspired the book), Charles McKee, Jack Miller, Marshal Taylor, Rena Winters, Robert Fregeau, Robert Cawley, Keith Bettinger, Dennis Griffin, Rob Corbin and Michael MacQuarrie. The Wednesday Warrior Writers Project brings together retirees and veterans and puts them into a creative environment where they can share their stories and perfect the writing craft to express themselves, W3 President Keith Bettinger said. When the concept of writing then selling a book came to fruition, the only organization we could think of, which serves active duty, retirees and veterans in a communal atmosphere was the USO Las Vegas Center. That's why we´re donating the proceeds from the sale of this book. <ul>For this, we at the Las Vegas USO are grateful and thank the Wednesday Warrior Writers. <li>Doug Bradford, Las Vegas USO Center Director</li>

What would you do if you received a phone call twenty eight years after your father s murder and a friend told you they finally knew who killed him? You would venture forward to bring the criminal to justice and clear the case. However, good guys aren't always the heroes and bad guys the villains. A career criminal turns government witness after a mobster places a murder contract on him. He tells investigators about crimes that happened. He has no reason to lie. If he lies, he will face life in prison and that life sentence will be a short one thanks to the contract. He tells federal agents of unsolved murders and the federal agents bring in the local authorities from McHenry County Illinois. Twenty eight years later, Paul Scharff receives a phone call that directs him to a biography of this government witness. This rekindles his desire to bring his father's murderer to justice. All the while he is doing this he uncovers the truth about the justice system in the corrupted town of McHenry.
