The launch on Tuesday, March 2 at the Woolloomooloo Bay Hotel saw those associated with Glen’s story, which is told in Dirty Work, plus representatives of the book industry, New Holland Publishers and the media on hand as the book was officially launched by former police officer and author, Tim Priest.
Dirty Work is the true story of police corruption and undercover assignments as witnessed by Glen, who was stationed at Sydney’s notorious King’s Cross. Glen joined the NSW Police Force when he was 17 and was sworn in as a constable at 19. A career as a detective beckoned and soon Glen was tracking down the notorious Warren Lanfranchi who was dealing drugs with Neddy Smith, and disgraced cop Roger Rogerson who was making deals in Redfern. There are also startling revelations about the connection between the drug trade and paedophilia.
This is Inner Sydney in the heat of the 1980s and the cash and drugs are flowing freely.
Dirty Work is now available – RRP $29.95.
