Good afternoon everyone! As I said earlier this has been a long week for me and so I am really hoping this weekend will be more relaxing. And even though it is a holiday I plan on laying low. I know I am a really exciting college student. – The Apprentice
Patrolling the Heart of the West: True Tales of a Nevada State Trooper
by Steve Raabe
(151 Reviews)
Genre: Biographies & Memoirs
FREE for a limited time
For decades, Trooper Steve Raabe patrolled some of the most desolate and dangerous highways in America. Alone in the remote Nevada desert, miles from any backup, Raabe was forced to contend with murderers, thieves, perverts, dope peddlers, and the occasional runaway train.
While often tragic and terrifying, Raabe’s true tales also abound with his signature wit and playful good cheer. Policing can be a deadly serious business, but for Raabe it also entailed buying a prisoner an ice cream cone on a hot summer day, or laughing along with some good old boys before booking them into jail, as you’ll discover in Patrolling the Heart of the West.

Under the heady glow of Anders’ attention, Rebecca thrives, even as her sister languishes. While Dena’s strength returns, residual facial paralysis sidelines her indefinitely, amid a world that demands beauty and perfection.
