Lynda Sandoval spent seven years with the Wheat Ridge Police Department (Colorado).
While a police officer, she wrote three books. In 1998, she left the Wheat Ridge
Police Department to become a full-time writer. She has since published fourteen
books. In her book True Blue, “she
explores topics such as the classes officers have to take at the police academy, including everything from U.S. Constitutional
law and firearms training to stress management and ethics; an average day on the job, including typical uniform and equipment
and an example of a call; arrest procedures; basics of crime scene investigation; search warrants and interrogations; officer-involved
shootings and the aftermath; gang slang; Ten-Code system; radio codes; and a listing of additional research resources. True Blue is a must-have for every writer
who has cops traipsing through her work.”
