Jurgensen is the genuine article. He stands among the best detectives in the NYPD. The mosque case of '72 is one of the most storied cases in history and Circle of Six holds no punches.
Circle of Six takes us back to a time of despair in New York City that we'd all like to forget but can't. We must understand the mistakes of that time so we don't repeat them again.
This book puts you in the riotous Harlem streets amidst the chaos, anger, fear, betrayal, violence, and death. Every cop should read it. Every American should read it. You won't believe what they did.
Throughout his career, Jurgensen did what we ask every single officer to do, every single day. He went out there, with no regard for his own safety, for his own safety. He set the standard.
Jurgensen is a hero to so many but cares not for the accolades. In times of self-doubt, his legend serves as a reminder for every man and woman in Blue to wear their uniform with pride.
This is one of the best and most realistic book since The French Connection. It's the Moby Dick of police stories. It makes me wish I was still making movies.
Jurgensen personifies persistence and tenacity. His moral compass has taken him places most would be afraid to travel. The more obstacles in his path, the further he is determined to go.
This book brings you back to the unforgettable 70’s. It depicts the horror of that period. As a NYPD officer it reminded me of a time that to a certain degree we are facing now. A must read.
