520    During David Woodland's 19 years' service with the 
       Metropolitan Police, the 'thin blue line' came under 
       intense pressure. In addition to the routine caseload of 
       gang crime, murder and armed robbery, Irish terrorist 
       groups launched a vicious and prolonged terror campaign.&

The Author, a Detective Inspector in the 
       Crime Intelligence Branch at New Scotland Yard, witnessed 
       a series of major scandals. He reveals why many otherwise 
       honest detectives strove to rectify defects in the law 
       that allowed professional criminals to evade justice. When
       Sir Robert Marks, the newly appointed Police Commissioner,
       described the CID as 'the most routinely corrupt 
       organisation in London', there may have been more than an 
       element of truth in his extraordinary claim but it 
       devastated the public's credibility in the CID. 
&
       #8232;Using his own cases and experience, he demonstrates 
       the difficulties faced by a depleted, demoralised Police 
       Force not least 'the enemy within'. 

Crime 
       and Corruption at The Yard is a gripping, shocking and 
       instructive insider's account of sharp end police work. 
       Salutary lessons are learnt about the effect of PC and 
       'human rights' on the preservation of law and order.
