Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The little-known life of a fire marshal is part police detection and part forensic investigation. The vivid accounts in Heat take readers to the scenes of our most horrifying crimes: mob burnouts, lives destroyed by insurance torchings, grisly arson murders committed out of jealousy or revenge. Fire marshals carry nothing but years of experience battling the flames, a badge, and a gun to their job. Here are their most unforgettable cases: the suspicious blazes, the weird breaks, the manhunts, the dramatic shootouts, and the ultimate moment when disaster is averted or a child's life is saved. In this grippingly authentic oral history, the fire marshals speak movingly about those they have arrested and the tough decisions they have made. Capturing the unmistakable voices of the firehouse, the courthouse, and the street, Micheels takes you to the heat of the fire and gets to the heart of the crime.…

Hardcover / Hardback. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First edition. Hardback. The fascinating world of fire marshals is part police procedure, part forensic investigation. These vivid, eyewitness accounts take readers to the scenes of New York City's most horrifying crimes: mob burnouts, lives destroyed by insurance torchings, grisly arson murders committed out of jealousy or revenge. Fire marshals are a special breed who carry a badge, a gun, and years of experience facing the flames. Here are their most unforgettable cases: the suspicious blazes, the weird breaks, the manhunts, the dramatic shootouts, and the ultimate moments when a disaster is averted or a child's life is saved. The fire marshals speak movingly about those they have arrested and the tough decisions they have made: a woman who burned down her apartment building so that she and her children would be moved to a safer part of town, a boy of 14 who kills himself after his arrest out of remorse for his crime. More horrifying are the vanity arsonists, those who endanger hundreds of lives in order to help put out the fire and, they hope, earn a medal or gain acceptance into a gang.

Hardcover / Hardback. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First edition. Hardback. From rape to murder, from bombings to hostage-taking, the world of the New York Police Department's detectives is full of danger - and full of opportunities for heroism. These accounts from top investigators tell how it really goes down: never have detectives spoken so openly and in such detail. Here are stories of what it takes: going undercover to catch a dangerous and seemingly untouchable drug dealer, defusing a bomb factory located in an apartment building with over 300 people in it, investigating a brutal and elusive rapist who poses as a gypsy cab driver. And for every crime there is a deeper story: how a detective tracked the criminal from crime scene to arrest: how a hopeless case turned around on the smallest condemning detail; and how insight, experience, and courage stopped some of the country's fiercest criminals. The author captures the action of the street, the politics of the precinct, and the drama of the courtroom. Illus. + Glossary. 251pp. 8vo. h/back.
