When super-tough cop Sergeant Harry Keeble announced he was joining Hackney's ailing Child Protection Team in 2000, his colleagues were astounded. Known as the 'Cardigan Squad', its officers were seen as glorified social workers dealing with domestics. The reality was very different. Within a few months he'd fought machete-wielding thugs, rescued kids who had pit bulls chained to their cots and confronted the horrors of African witchcraft, exposing a network of abuse in the process - all in his unrelenting war against child cruelty. Harry rescued dozens of kids - kids in crack houses, kids living in unimaginable filth and kids who had burned their houses down. Then there were the hostage situations, the lynch mobs, and the almost impossible process of interviewing paedophiles to get a confession. Without wading in sentimentality, Harry describes how his team - working alongside dedicated but chronically underfunded social workers - operated at the sharp end of child protection. This is a shocking and unforgettable story of how some of the UK's most disadvantaged children escaped their tormentors - and explains why some cases, similar to that of Baby P's, ended in tragedy.

i would highly reccommend this book. It highlights the struggle for many children out there, and the fight that our services are put through everyday and the lack of support we have to help those in need, who cant help themselves. Alot of negativity surrounds services such as social work,police, child protection services. This book reminds us that the only people are fault are the abusers, and that the men and women out there doing their jobs ARE doing so only at what means they have. Reading this book will change alot of your opinions and hopefully encourage people out there to get involved in assisting services instead of dragging them through the mud. i admire the men and women i have read about and it made me consider a change in career.
