“It was the members of the public who didn't seem to care what was happening on the streets around them, who hurried on by when they saw crimes being committed, too cowardly to intervene. Sometimes it seemed like the 'them' was everyone, and the 'us' was simply me, a lone copper engaged in a one-man battle against the injustices of the world.”
― Simon Kernick, The Payback

“The day it all went wrong for me was 11 August 1989. That was the day I killed a man for the first time.”
