The Rozzers Collection by Diem Burden Book Summary

The five books of The Rozzers series are presented here in one large volume, each detailing the various stages of a police career in Cambridge in the 1990s.

END OF THE ROAD
This is a short story of a day in the life of young British soldier Diem Burden. His life is at a crossroads: his military career rapidly coming to an end with no idea of what to do post-army. With a new family to support, the pressure is mounting on him to find a way forward – and soon.
Returning back to camp after an idyllic day out, the squaddie is thrown into a horrifying tragedy which puts him to the test, as well as those around him. Later, whilst trying to cope with the trauma of that dreadful event, a seed is quietly planted which, with a slight bit of nurturing, leads Diem along a certain path.

COPS DON'T RUN
Policing the streets of Britain in the 1990s was possibly one of the most challenging, complex, tiring, dangerous, overly-criticized and underrated jobs a young man could have chosen to do. So why do it?
Swapping his army-greens for police-blues, ex-soldier Diem Burden chooses to do just that, initially suspecting he has joined 'just another army'. All that changes, however, once he is let loose on the unsuspecting public that makes up the beautiful British university city of Cambridge. From mad axe-men to heart-breaking agony messages, the new probationer samples everything that cops routinely face, whilst infamously making police college history along the way.
Follow Constable Burden as he embarks on his new police career. Walk with him as he discovers another world, one only ever seen by those brave (or foolish) enough to put on a police uniform. Share his fears, his shock, and his heartache as he is guided through the myriad of jobs he will be expected to deal with as a solo cop, if he can just make it through those first few, memorable months as a trainee. No training can ever prepare you for life as a cop. Ever.

ONE FOR THE ROAD
Having completed his initial training, rookie cop PC 424 Burden has been authorised for solo patrol, and nervously takes to the streets of the beautiful university city of Cambridge, to learn how to police the streets alone, to arrest crooks and to try and make his mark, often with hilarious, sometimes terrifying, and occasionally heart-breaking results.

THIEF TAKER
With police college a distant memory, Constable Burden quickly becomes one of the most experienced officers on his shift. Just a handful of years separate that awkward, nervous rookie from the professional he has become, and as he revels in his new, undeclared status, the variety of incidents he has to face on a daily basis just continues to grow!
Patrol alongside Constable Burden through the medieval streets of Cambridge, as he deals with the terrifying, tragic, and often unbelievable events that a small British university town can somehow manage to conjure up out of nowhere.
Then maybe, just maybe, you'll understand why cops love being cops ...

COP OUT
Officer Burden finally passes his drawn-out promotion exams, and gets bumped up to sergeant, a job he's been chasing after for a number of years. On receiving his stripes, he is told that he has to decide if he is 'on the Chief Constable's train, or not ...' At the time, he had absolutely no idea where that particular train was heading.
Meanwhile, after a beautiful woman walks into his jacuzzi at the local gym, things begin to heat up rapidly, resulting in a completely new and unexpected path opening up before him. Yet again ...

Warning: Contains strong language and graphic descriptions of death and injury from the outset.
