Blood on the Badge

Blood on the Badge — True Stories from the Frontline of Australian Policing

By Alan Leek — award-winning police veteran

This is Australian policing as it really was — raw, dangerous, and utterly gripping. Blood on the Badge is a hard-hitting tribute to the forgotten heroes of Australian law enforcement, written by a decorated officer who lived it.

From an era when handguns, explosives, and tommy guns were the weapons of choice, Alan Leek brings to life a collection of true stories that will leave you breathless. Gunfights in the streets. Stabbings. Unspeakable violence. And the brave men and women who stood between the public and chaos — often with nothing but their wits and their badge.

These are the stories that never made the history books — but should have.
