This short story is republished to coincide with the retirement of Andy Cooke from the police force. While entirely fictional, Standing to Attention explores themes of authority, perception, and institutional culture through a dark and satirical lens. The narrative invites readers to reflect on the subtle dynamics of power and the often-unquestioned structures that shape professional and personal lives alike.
