Publisher's Synopsis

"Suit Of Blue" brings into full view the poignant moments of one of Ontario, Canada's first female police officers assigned to general patrol duties. She was an officer in Peel Region, right next to Toronto. Heather worked all shifts without a partner, responding to the same calls as her male counterparts. Suit of Blue is a must read for anyone interested to move behind the scenes into some of the most emotionally charged situations affecting police officers, male or female. Twists of irony and humour thread through an unrelenting undercurrent of action and anguish, and of physical and emotional trauma on the job. As well, Suit of Blue will capture readers with its ripple effects on the author's personal life as a wife of a police officer and mother of two children. Suit of Blue provides an important contrast to today's reality when female police chiefs and other female officials are common in Ontario.
