My nine years with the Metropolitan Police and life after the Force
AUTHOR MICHAEL HANSON
The “Met” was formed by the Metropolitan Police Act of 1829 and in Michael Hanson’s training at Peel House, after he joined in 1953, some of the early principles of tact and conciliatory methods were still being taught.
Dealing with human nature in all kinds of different situations both in uniform and as a detective helped him through changes in single and family life, which led to an eventual home in British Columbia, Canada.
It also prompted him to write detective stories and Poems.
Two tough British cops fight crime — and the system!
They’re honest, and they don’t give up…
Meet Daniel Compton, a Detective Sergeant on the Canonsfield police force who is out of favour with his superiors after he refused to look the other way when a politician’s son got caught with his fingers in the cookie jar.
His new partner, Martin Devere, an impulsive young Constable who has a tendency to punch first and ask questions later, has been bumped up to Detective Constable only because top brass think he’s bound to make things even worse for Compton and provide a good excuse for both of them to get the sack..
Together, besides dealing with their cop bosses, they’re up against a raucous motorcycle gang suspected of a post office robbery and the brutal murder of a female accomplice.
Michael Hanson’s police training and experience with the Met has helped to make his detective stories authentic.

She uttered a snarl, whipped the long wooden needle out of her hair and lunged at the host. The other escort had become alerted when he saw his partner intercept the drink and he stepped in front, only to take the needle in the throat…”
