Good cop, bad war : my life undercover inside Britain's biggest drug gangs / Neil Woods with JS Rafaeli.

Good cop, bad war : my life undercover inside Britain's biggest drug gangs / Neil Woods with JS Rafaeli.

Neil Woods spent fourteen years (1993-2007) infiltrating drug gangs as an undercover policeman, befriending and gaining the trust of some of the most violent, unpredictable criminals in Britain. But Neil was never your stereotypical gung-ho, tough-guy copper. This is the story of how a thoughtful, idealistic character learned to use his empathetic nature to master some of the roughest, most dangerous work in law enforcement. There was no training, no manual and no plan for when things went wrong; he was just dropped at a corner and told to make connections. Yet after years on the streets with vulnerable users, Neil began to question the seemingly fruitless battle he was risking his life and sanity for. In this book Neil Woods reveals his life undercover and exposes the truth behind Britain's war on drugs.
