The New Centurions

Joseph Wambaugh, a former LAPD detective sergeant, is the bestselling author of sixteen prior works of fiction and nonfiction, including THE CHOIRBOYS and THE ONION FIELD. In 2004, he was named Grand Master by the Mystery Writers of America. He lives in southern California.

In a class of new police recruits, Augustus Plebesly is fast and scared. Roy Fehler is full of ideals. And Serge Duran is an ex-marine running away from his Chicano childhood. In a few weeks, they''ll put on the blue uniform of the LAPD. In the months to come, they''ll learn that right and wrong aren''t always clearly black and white. Bad guys populate both sides of the law. Rules are subject to interpretation. Justice is slow and convoluted. And life is not fair. But for these men, these new centurions, time is an enemy. The year is 1960. The streets are burning with rage. And before they can grow old on this job, they''ll have to fight for their lives...
