Pig Tales a narc's story

By Dale Hoagland

Book Overview

Pig Tales follows a young man's career from his stint as a Berkeley police officer in the 70s to his time as an undercover narcotic detective in a rural county in California's Central Valley. It examines the war on drugs from a different point of view and explores the personal lives of narcs as well as how cases are really made.The wild adventures of this undercover cop are relayed in humorous, and sometimes moving, stories that bring the cops, crooks, and informants to life during a time when police work was far less regulated. The characters involved on both sides of the law were colorful and sometimes outrageous.While Pig Tales recounts terrifying moments on the job, its style offers an entertaining and irreverent snapshot of what really goes on and isn't often talked about in law enforcement.Readers will come face to face with these rich characters and the life and politics of the law enforcement profession in a way that is seldom done.
