THE #1 BESTSELLER. HIS FIRST NONFICTION WORK SINCE THE ONION FIELD. ALSO KNOWN AS: Serialized in Los Angeles magazine, January 1984. COVER: Bantam Books, Inc. STEPBACK ART: John Solie. SYNOPSIS: THEY SAW THEMSELVES AS "THE LAST OF THE HARDBALL, CACTUS-STUCK, WORM-CHEWING, CHILI-SUCKING, SKULL-CRUNCHING GUNSLINGERS IN THE WEST." AND EVERY NIGHT THEY HAD TO PROVE IT. THE TRUE STORY ONLY WAMBAUGH COULD TELL. A BAND OF CALIFORNIA COPS SET LOOSE IN NO-MAN'S-LAND TO COME HOME HEROES. OR COME HOME DEAD. Not since Joseph Wambaugh's bestselling The Onion Field has there been a true police story as fascinating, as totally gripping as.Lines and Shadows. The media hailed them as heroes. Others denounced them as lawless renegades. A squad of tough cops called the Border Crime Task Force. A commando team sent to patrol the snake-infested no-man's-land south of San Diego. Not to apprehend the thousands of illegal aliens slipping into the U.S., but to stop the ruthless bandits who preyed on them nightly--relentlessly robbing, raping and murdering defenseless men, women and children. The task force plan was simple. They would disguise themselves as illegal aliens. They would confront the murderous shadows of the night. Yet each time they walked into the violent blackness along the border, they came closer to another boundary line---a fragile line within each man. And crossing it meant destroying their sanity and their lives. - and - LT. DICK SNIDER - 17-year San Diego police veteran. He puts together a police task force of determined cops to patrol the border killing ground--cops prepared to fight bandit-style against the criminals slaughtering helpless pollos, illegal aliens. SGT. MANNY LOPEZ - Craft, gutsy team leader. He lives by the code of machismo, thrives on violence, and is becoming a hard-ball gunslinging lawman frighteningly convinced of his own invulnerability. FRED GIL - Oldest cop on the team. An ex-Marine, judo champ, and Vietnam vet, he truly cares about the pollos, and he'll risk his life and ruin his marriage to play decoy in that pitiless borderland. ERNIE SALGADO - The tallest of them, their weapons expert. Another ex-Marine who has seen his share of combat, he wonders if the canyons at night will make him flash to Nam. CARLOS CHACON - A rookie. He loves guns, has violent dreams and is so quick on the trigger that he may be as dangerous to cops as he is to robbers. KEN KELLY - They call him King. A big, blond, wild-eyed, hard-drinking cop. At times he's a demented Jack Nicholson, at others a supercharged Romeo. He has to get on the task force--somehow. Joseph Wambaugh, a fourteen-year veteran of the Los Angeles Police Department, is the author of numerous best sellers: The New Centurions, The Blue Knight, The Choirboys, The Onion Field, The Black Marble, The Glitter Dome, and The Delta Star. Lines and Shadows is his first work of nonfiction since The Onion Field. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. John Solie (illustrator).

Light Creasing on Front, Rear Covers, Spine; Front, Rear Covers, Spine Lightly Chipped; Spine Slightly Cocked; Moderate Yellowing Due to Age. THE #1 BESTSELLER. Joseph Wambaugh, Author of FUGITIVE NIGHTS. ALSO KNOWN AS: Serialized in Los Angeles magazine, Jan…uary 1984. COVER: Bantam Books, Inc. STEPBACK ART: John Solie. SYNOPSIS: THE TRUE STORY ONLY WAMBAUGH COULD TELL. A BAND OF CALIFORNIA COPS SET LOOSE IN NO-MAN'S-LAND TO COME HOME HEROES. OR COME HOME DEAD. Not since Joseph Wambaugh's bestselling The Onion Field has there been a true police story as fascinating, as totally gripping as.Lines and Shadows. The media hailed them as heroes. Others denounced them as lawless renegades. A squad of tough cops called the Border Crime Task Force. A commando team sent to patrol the snake-infested no-man's-land south of San Diego. Not to apprehend the thousands of illegal aliens slipping into the U.S., but to stop the ruthless bandits who preyed on them nightly--relentlessly robbing, raping and murdering defenseless men, women and children. The task force plan was simple. They would disguise themselves as illegal aliens. They would confront the murderous shadows of the night. Yet each time they walked into the violent blackness along the border, they came closer to another boundary line---a fragile line within each man. And crossing it meant destroying their sanity and their lives. - and - LT. DICK SNIDER - 17-year San Diego police veteran. He puts together a police task force of determined cops to patrol the border killing ground--cops prepared to fight bandit-style against the criminals slaughtering helpless pollos, illegal aliens. SGT. MANNY LOPEZ - Craft, gutsy team leader. He lives by the code of machismo, thrives on violence, and is becoming a hard-ball gunslinging lawman frighteningly convinced of his own invulnerability. FRED GIL - Oldest cop on the team. An ex-Marine, judo champ, and Vietnam vet, he truly cares about the pollos, and he'll risk his life and ruin his marriage to play decoy in that pitiless borderland. ERNIE SALGADO - The tallest of them, their weapons expert. Another ex-Marine who has seen his share of combat, he wonders if the canyons at night will make him flash to Nam. CARLOS CHACON - A rookie. He loves guns, has violent dreams and is so quick on the trigger that he may be as dangerous to cops as he is to robbers. KEN KELLY - They call him King. A big, blond, wild-eyed, hard-drinking cop. At times he's a demented Jack Nicholson, at others a supercharged Romeo. He has to get on the task force--somehow.
