Publisher's Summary:
Ex-Ranger Connor Bradwick and his partner, Ellie James, are an Oakland PD patrol team who care about the people of their community. They are tired of the bad guys trying to take over their turf. After rescuing four kidnapped children from kiddie porn dealers, the duo is pulled to desk duty and required to go through psychological evaluation. The straight-and-narrow psychologist has concerns about Connor's readiness to return to duty, so when their boss clears them for duty she decided to ride along.
Tired of picking up criminals just to have them released, Beckworth devises a plan of proactive patrolling. When parolees are released in their area, they will monitor the criminals' known places of business to catch them in the act or deter them from doing business. Their very first effort nets them an arrest and everything, both good and bad, snowballs from that point.
Elle has a smart attitude bigger than her six-foot-plus partner. Connor brings his experience as a soldier to the streets. Julie, the psychologist, finds herself more involved with this dynamic duo than she ever dreamed possible. This action-packed, suspense-filled police story begins with a bit of righteous vigilant justice but that is not what the book is about. Humor, friendship, and people who care make this awesome story work. It is an overall up-beat novel.
Members Reviews:
Connor and Ellie kick some ass
Another good one from Deleo.
Connor Bradwick is 6'3" and one good looking guy. He's a special forces vet. He's also a cop in Oakland, CA.
He and his partner Ellie James are on patrol when they see a young boy running from a man. Of course they stop and check it out. After Connor clocks the guy he and Ellie question the boy.
Seems the young boy was kidnaped by the man years ago. He tells Connor and Ellie there are three other kids and more adults in a camper parked under the overpass.
Connor decides to take no prisoners.
He kills the three adults and gets the kids to Ellie. He then returns and makes the whole thing look like a righteous shooting. Ellie backs him one hundred percent as neither she nor Connor were concerned with killing three kidnapping sexual predators.
Of course after using his weapon he's ordered to undergo eval by the Department. Julie Morrison is the psycologist who works for the county and she's in charge of Connor's eval.
So begins one fine read.
This one has Connor, Ellie, Sgt. Donaldson, psycologist Julie Morrison, Jas and his partner Louie, Det. Morton, a mob kingpin named Ayala, the FBI, loads of bad guys, a county commissioner named Stennis and two police officers making headway on crime with a little vigilante justice.
Five Stars
Cops doing the right thing
Tough cops doing the right thing. Traffickers of human children, caught in the act, have no rights according to these cops. Only liberal lawyers would disagree with the opening scenario.
Another great book
As always a great read. Bernard's books are for the politically incorrect and proud of it, not afraid and to laugh and cheer out loud people. Loved the ride
THE PROTECTORS by Bernard DeLeo
THE PROTECTORS reads like an action filled, fast-paced movie that keeps you on the edge of your seat. DeLeo created characters that are loveable and funny one moment, and the next, with the cold detachment necessary to do their jobs, deep in the business of doing away with the bad guy.
