520    "The explosive true story of America's most corrupt police
       unit, the Gun Trace Task Force (GTTF), that terrorized the
       city of Baltimore for half a decade. When Baltimore police
       sergeant Wayne Jenkins said he had a monster, he meant he 
       had found a big-time drug dealer-one that he wanted to 
       rob. This is the story of Jenkins and the Gun Trace Task 
       Force (GTTF), a super group of dirty detectives who 
       exploited the some of America's greatest problems: guns, 
       drugs, toxic masculinity, and hypersegregation. In the 
       upside-down world of the GTTF, cops were robbers and drug 
       dealers were the perfect victims, because no one believed 
       them. When the federal government finally arrested the 
       GTTF for robbery and racketeering in 2017, the stories of 
       victims began to come out, revealing a vast criminal 
       enterprise operating within the Baltimore Police 
       Department. Cops planted heroin to cover up a fatal crash 
       that resulted from a botched robbery. They stole hundreds 
       of thousands of dollars, faked video evidence, and forged 
       a letter trying to break up the marriage of one of their 
       victims to keep his wife from paying a lawyer. And a 
       homicide detective was killed the day before he was 
       scheduled to testify against the crooked cops. This is the
       shocking history of the rise and fall of the most corrupt 
       cops in America"--|cProvided by publisher.
