Product Information
Award-winning reporter Jamie Thompson's gripping investigation of a s hooter's attack on Dallas police officers, leading to the most controversial decision in the history of American policing On July 7, 2016, hundreds of protesters gathered in Dallas after the shooting of two black men--Philando Castile and Alton Sterling--by white policemen. One hundred Dallas police officers stood guard. At around nine p.m., a gunman opened fire into the line of officers from behind. Five were killed and a dozen more injured. Senior Cpl. Larry Gordon, a black twenty-one year department veteran, managed to keep the shooter talking, in part by bonding with him, to buy the SWAT officers enough time to come up with a strategy to take him out--one that was extremely controversial and unprecedented on American soil. Thompson's intimate portrait of the lives of the shooter and the hostage negotiator, as well as the officers, the black surgeon who operated on them, and their families, gets to the heart of the deeply pressing issue of race and policing in our country. In the aftermath of the shooting, police forces and white and black communities all over the country were left grappling with questions of who our police force protects, what constitutes a threat, and who is entitled to physical safety or self-defense in this country.

Reviews
"Spellbinding and meticulously researched...This standout account is both a riveting page-turner and a nuanced portrait of one of contemporary America's most divisive social issues." -- Publishers Weekly , *starred review* "A nail-biting and nuanced true-life police procedural." -- Kirkus Reviews , *starred review* " Standoff , Jamie Thompson's deeply researched and elegantly rendered account of the Dallas police shootings, lays the compelling experience of the individual against the insidious tides of racism and violence within our society. The events of July 7th, 2016 are gripping and terrifying. The political, social, and historical structures surrounding these hours are meticulously explored and illuminating. And each individual navigating decisions with mortal consequences shimmers with life, each offering a stunning depth of experience and perspective--not only into the courage of their various professions, but into the soul of a fragile, resilient country." --Jeff Hobbs, New York Times bestselling author of The Short and Tragic Life of Robert Peace, "In Standoff , Jamie Thompson elegantly tells the story of one of the deadliest days in the history of American law enforcement. She deftly weaves dozens of individual stories into one, transforming her subjects from characters into fully formed people. While it''s a moving, intimate account of the officers who faced terror that day, it goes even further--placing the day''s events into the broader context of a nation grappling with issues of race and justice. A true public service for those of us who hope we can find a way to close the gap in trust between American police and the communities they serve." --Wesley Lowery, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author of the New York Times bestselling They Can''t Kill Us All: Ferguson, Baltimore and a New Era in America''s Racial Justice Movement "A thrilling read that is as moving as it is riveting and cinematic. So meticulously reported that I often had to remind myself that it was nonfiction, this is a book that tells a big story about race, policing and politics while managing never to be heavy-handed about its message. Thompson is a writer of rare talent and perception." --Mitchell Zuckoff, New York Times bestselling author of 13 Hours and Lost in Shangri-La " By digging with such honesty into the heroics and heartbreaks of an American mass shooting, Jamie Thompson has written a crucial, clear-eyed, and deeply moving book about the people among us who want to ruin lives and the better people among us who want to save them. I was immersed in Standoff from beginning to end because of the understanding it gave me about the seemingly inexplicable, and also because it''s an absolute page-turner of a story."-- David Finkel, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author of Thank You For Your Service "Spellbinding and meticulously researched...This standout account is both a riveting page-turner and a nuanced portrait of one of contemporary America''s most divisive social issues." -- Publishers Weekly , *starred review* " Standoff , Jamie Thompson''s deeply researched and elegantly rendered account of the Dallas police shootings, lays the compelling experience of the individual against the insidious tides of racism and violence within our society.

The story unfolds within the broader complex intersection of police shootings of black men and an entire community''s reliance on law enforcement to protect its citizens, at no time more than when mass shootings like this one unfold. Standoff is a must-read to understand these critical issues that continue to plague America." --Jennifer Berry Hawes, author of Grace Will Lead Us Home "It''s amazing what Jamie Thompson has been able to pull off -- taking us inside the Dallas Police Department during a single day of terror. She gives us a searing, intimate account of a group of officers who put their lives on the line to save innocent citizens and who then come up with a remarkable plan to bring down a killer. Standoff is a saga of chaos, tragedy, and stunning heroism." -- Skip Hollandsworth, New York Times bestselling author of The Midnight Assassin, "In Standoff , Jamie Thompson elegantly tells the story of one of the deadliest days in the history of American law enforcement.
