‘Black Over Bills Mothers – A Storm Is Coming – a historical crime fiction book set predominantly in Birmingham. A dark and often brutal book which was made into a film script last year (offers welcome!) Murders that can’t be counted on two hands, corruption and injustice at every turn, local history by the bucket and musical memories in each chapter. Essentially a book with Brum at the heart and written by two Brummies. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01HQN8Q2W The book currently enjoys 57 reviews on Amazon and scores an impressive 4.9 out of 5 overall stars.

‘Police Dog Heroes’ the true story of the British Transport Police Dog Section – the first to be formed in the UK at Hull Docks in 1908. The first picture shows the original front cover which didn’t meet publishing standards and the second the existing cover. There’s just something about dogs that captures peoples hearts. The book currently has 14 reviews on Amazon and scores 4.2 overall out of 5 stars.https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1445655470/ #BTP #Dogs #Police #Railways @COTT@BTPHG @BTPDogs #history

‘Hunting The Hooligans’ – co-written by an individual whose love for writing is only surpassed by his love for Leeds United and a usually ‘dormant’ Birmingham City FC supporter who still retains a passion for policing. On the first day of publication two individuals who clearly don’t share that passion put two ‘spoiler’ reviews on Amazon. Fortunately their antics didn’t stop 66 other people from putting genuine reviews on and it now scores an overall 4.3 out of 5 stars. A true story which neither glorifies the subject of football related violence nor seeks to denigrate those who have moved on. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0123F2OJY/ The film script to this book remains on the shelf to this day and would make a cracking thriller set in Birmingham #Football #Hooligans #Police #Truestory #Birmingham @RobertEndeacott @MILO

‘Its A Blag – the dark art of police humour’ – Volume II of this book is now well advanced but still looking for more ‘blag’ or funny stories. Much of the new material originates from the West Midlands but contributions from any Force are most welcome. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1792111541/ #WMP #WMPHistory #book #Police
