Hi, I am a retired police officer who has turned author. I write about what it was like to be a true crime cop in the 1990s in Portsmouth in the UK. I also write about brain surgery having suffered a stroke. https://www.richard-foster.net/ My memoir is called, STOP,POLICE! Buy 👉🏻https://books2read.com/Stop-Police
This week I visited The Petersfield Bookshop, run by the brilliant John Westwood — the PFC superfan himself — to drop off a copy of STOP, POLICE! There’s a whole chapter in the book dedicated to policing at Portsmouth Football Club, so I really hope he enjoys it. Over the next few weeks, physical bookshops will also be able to stock the book. If you don’t see it on the shelf, just ask them to order it in. 👉 https://books2read.com/Stop-Police

One of the best decisions I made while writing STOP, POLICE! was bringing in editor and Sunday Times 📰 bestselling author David Meikle. David, based in Winchester, helped me turn my story into the polished, powerful book I wanted it to be. Huge thanks🙏🏻, David - your guidance made all the difference!
