Books by Marie Ford

I chose to write about my experiences because I want people-- the general public we protect on a daily basis and whose safety and security we ensure by supervising offenders--to know what we experience daily, mentally and physically. Once you report for duty, you don't know what can happen from one minute to the next. Things can happen so quickly--you could be assaulted or severely injured, or you could lose your life. There are some made-for-television movies that are not real. However, it is entertainment.
