Summary

Ruffian is the story of a cooperation between the Savannah Chatham Metropolitan Police Department and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to combat violent crime in the City of Savannah, Georgia. They worked on a domestic counter insurgency operation that targeted two gangs from two different neighborhoods that were wreaking havoc in the city.

Award-winning author Kevin Grogan takes you on the street as a plain-clothed detective and candidly answers questions about law enforcement reform and violent crime that is plaguing the United States. Nothing is off-limits in this extremely candid look at policing in America today.

Remarkable!!!

This book was just what I had expected from Kevin Grogan. I truly appreciated the sacrifices that people made at the top to help bring justice to victims of crime, but this book really help make a clear picture of how it all started! I found it inspirational and wanted to jump in and help Kevin from time to time😂! What a story!!

Awesome book 📕

I loved listening to this while working, the voice was great and soothing. This was a great way to hear from a detective’s🕵️‍♀️ point of view about some cases that I have heard about in the past in Savannah, Georgia.

The truth can be ugly

As a veteran police officer 👮‍♀️myself this really does the investigations side of things in Savannah Georgia justice and reads how the interaction is day to day on the job down there. Very good and interesting work by these guys.

Riveting but Intriguing

Wow! What a book! Found it hard to put down! My 2nd read from Kevin Grogan. Will there be a 3rd book? 🤔

Greatest book to date

This book was well published, well read, and beautifully delivered. I was on the fence about listening to this book but after shooting my shot, I decided to give it a try. I was inspired, moved, and overall impacted! Great work Kevin!!👏😁
