Title: Over the Wall: From the Dangerous Streets of NYC…Through the Birth of Counterterrorism and Beyond Author: Kevin M. Hallinan Narrator: Steve Marvel Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 21 minutes Release date: December 20, 2022 Genres: True Crime Publisher's Summary: From his hardscrabble NYC upbringing, through the NYPD ranks, to command of America's first ever joint task force on terrorism alongside the FBI, Kevin M. Hallinan lived a lot of history. From beat cop to detective, Hallinan maneuvered through some of America's most volatile decades and saw from the inside the tenuous gray line between law and order. Early in his career, Hallinan became embroiled in deadly mob cases, which pulled him under the scrutiny of the feared and historic Knapp Commission on police corruption. In extreme danger and under pressure, he persevered and kept his integrity intact. Higher-ups took notice and brought him into the chief of detectives' office where he helped reorganize robbery squads and create innovative and responsive new police initiatives. One such effort helped bring awareness and sensitivity to sexual assault investigations and contributed to the creation of the revolutionary Special Victims Unit. And that was only the beginning. His fascinating inside look at a life in law enforcement spans layers of history, explores evolutions in national security, and features game-changing heroes and eye-opening innovations. Kevin M. Hallinan's memoir is at once informative, thrilling, entertaining—and perhaps most of all, truly inspiring.
