The lemming syndrome - Martin Charles Allen

Nottingham copper David Keane is disenchanted with his lot and stuck in a career that’s going nowhere. Along with many of his colleagues, he detests the fact that they are wasting so much of their time and also getting no help from the courts or legal system. In addition they are now regularly jumped upon from above in order to meet politically motivated targets.Whilst his personal life starts to improve, his career prospects take a severe and unexpected lurch into a dangerous adventure. Picked out by a group of vigilantes, he is drawn into their underworld, but one which, whilst posing dangers, does offer a chance of actually removing the causes of some of his worst frustrations.His desire to see the issue through, whilst ignoring every rule in the book, leads him onto a path from which there may be no return and one which offers a stunning final twist.David’s exploits offer the reader the chance to challenge their own opinions about what can and should be done to improve life in Britain today, particularly with respect to law and order, and ask themselves whether taking problems into their own hands can, in fact, result in unplanned and unwelcome results.
