I'm excited to announce that my book Police Wife: The Secret Epidemic of Police Domestic Violence (2nd ed.) has won an honourable mention in the Los Angeles Book Festival awards, in the non-fiction category.
This prize comes after Police Wife was named a finalist in the American Book Fest's 2017 Best Book Awards in November and won an honourable mention in the New England Book Festival awards.
Both editions of Police Wife have so far won eight awards in total.
The first edition of Police Wife won the Arlene Book Award for Writing That Makes a Difference, given once every three years by the American Society of Journalists and Authors; was the runner-up for the Hollywood Book Festival non-fiction book award; won silver in the eLit Book Awards; picked up bronze in the INDIEFAB Book of the Year Awards; and was a finalist in the Next Generation Indie Book Awards.
You are not alone. As many as 40% of police officers have abused their intimate partner or child. Authorities mostly ignore the widespread violence. But help is out there. My award-winning book “Police Wife” explains why so many officers are abusive, what women can do to increase their safety and how we can help them.
