The Blue Chameleon: The Life Story of a Supercop

The Blue Chameleon details the journey of Detective Daril Cinquanta, now retired from the Denver Police Department, as he evolves into a Super Cop in spite of the efforts by some of his own commanders, community activists and even many other officers who felt (threatened) by his hard work and exemplary successes, as they attempted, but failed, to render him ineffective for years. His career is riddled with controversy, citizen complaints, lawsuits and disciplinary action, which mostly sought to break his enthusiasm to chase bad guys. In spite of the harassment, he goes on to arrest thousands of felons and put 1000 individuals in prisons nationwide.This book takes you deep into the inner mechanics of a big city police department, and the world of informants, search warrants and investigations and the creative way Detective Cinquanta was able to become a controversial legend amongst fellow officers and criminals alike.
