The initial print run of Above the Law sold out within ten days which was, obviously, fantastic news but it has meant that it's been unavailable for a little while, it is now back in stock. Thanks to everyone for the support so far.

I've been doing so much promotion of it that, if you rush to Amazon, you might be able to pick up one of the rare unsigned copies.

Above the Law Above the Law


"Brilliantly entertaining and enlightening." - Catherine Larner, Suffolk Magazine

"A genuinely absorbing read that showed me a side of the police service that I didn’t really know anything about." - Caroline Hooton, I Read Therefore I Blog

"Adrian writes with real immediacy and warmth. He exhibits the dry, black humour so often evident in personnel within the emergency services, while also displaying a real compassion for the people whose lives he is observing whether he is protecting them or pursuing them." - More About Books

"An entertaining insight into a different world, its people and, sometimes, its politics." - FLYER Magazine

"I really enjoyed the writing style. It felt more like I did not have to read, but that the book talked to me. If you are looking for an honest, from the heart tale, it's a must read." - Els, B for Bookreview

"An outstanding read." - Bill Davies

"The tale is informative and full of pertinent humour, light but without losing the focus of a serious subject...what a delight it is." - Bryn Elliott

"The ultimate police aviation book" - Police Aviation News

"Adrian takes us on a personal journey, filled with humour and anecdotes, through his time flying in Suffolk as part of their police air support unit. This book provides a great insight into this exciting aspect of policing. " - Richard Brandon, author of The Haynes Police Helicopter Operations Manual

"A hilarious, sad, thought-provoking and brilliantly told story. When my copy of Above The Law landed a few days ago it barely left my hands until I'd read through to the final, unexpected, conclusion." - Andy Betson

"It’s a great read, fascinating, factual and funny!" - Mark Redmond
