But the grind of everyday police work left him craving more-a deeper rush, bigger challenges, and higher stakes. His solution? Join the elite undercover unit, where he could chase the city's most dangerous criminals. But what started as a mission to do \"real police work\" transformed into a spiraling journey that would cost him everything.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUndercover Junkie is a raw, gut-wrenching plunge into the harrowing world of undercover policing where the boundaries between law and lawlessness blur. As Brent disappeared deeper into his alter ego-a street-hardened addict named Ricky-he became intoxicated by the chaos and the high of living on the razor's edge. Through high-stakes gun deals, drug operations, and the constant threat of being exposed, Brent's descent into darkness is as gripping as it is devastating.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMore than a memoir, Undercover Junkie is an unflinching account that challenges the culture of silence that claims far too many of those who answer the call to serve, laying bare how a toxic environment can exact a toll on even the bravest among us. As Brent's story proves, without the proper safeguards, our heroes must sometimes sacrifice their own humanity in the name of duty-and the cost can be unimaginable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Brent Cartwright\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798992104615\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Gatsby Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/15\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.81d","brand":"Brent Cartwright","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46489663865087,"sku":"9798992104615","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6f0aaec9-34a7-4af1-b627-09fd2ce3825c.jpg?v=1736954217","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/undercover-junkie-brent-cartwright-9798992104615","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
