Hookers, Tricks and Cops by Loren Christensen
Hookers, Tricks and Cops reveals all the dark humor, poignancy, sordidness, degradation, sadness and violence that is the world where hookers, tricks and cops interweave.
During Loren Christensen's 25-year police career, he worked many assignments that brought him into contact with street prostitutes. The anecdotes in this book tell of decoy missions, confrontations, arrests and times he used them as informants.
Loren also interviewed many veteran police officers, male and female, as well as prostitutes. Their stories are in this book, too, some subtle; some in-your-face, some laugh-out-loud funny -- but all actually happened.
A police officer was killed working a decoy mission while Loren was writing this book That tragic story is told here, too.
While the book is in no way sexually titillating, some of the dialog is crude in keeping with the reality of the situations.
