Summary
There's a new crime boss in town, and he means business. With the city's power balance teetering on a knife's edge, San Diego residents need to watch their step, because one wrong move could be their last.
Seasoned Sergeant James Edwards is a man on the verge of retirement, but when his superior receives wind of a new underground ruler, both his plans and the city's stability spiral into chaos. As Sergeant Edwards is drawn into one final investigation, he discovers a chilling truth: someone is leaking vital info to the gangs, and all the signs point to the same place—a traitor in the department. Meanwhile, Officer Jose Sandoval is torn between loyalty and a particular hunch, growing suspicious of a once-trusted colleague.
Out on the streets, a sly informant tiptoes through landmines, playing both sides by feeding intel to the cops while double-crossing the gangs he's supposed to be serving. For Sergeant Edwards, everything's unraveling—a lost career, a love that slipped away, and a life that was seemingly missing a purpose.
With pressure mounting from every direction, the question is: Can he get to the bottom of the most twisted case he's ever faced? Or will someone else take him down first? Uncover who survives the final play in a city where loyalty is a gamble and trust is a deadly game.

Gripping from start to finish!
"Shadows on the Badge" is a masterclass in suspense and storytelling! The gritty world of San Diego's crime-ridden streets and the palpable tension within the police force are brought to life by vivid writing and expert narration. Sergeant James Edwards is a character who feels so real, a man caught in the crossfire of his fading career and a city at the mercy of a ruthless new crime boss. Every twist and turn kept me glued, rooting for him as he battled not just criminals but also betrayal within his own ranks.
What really stands out is the layered storytelling—Edwards’ personal struggles, Officer Sandoval’s moral dilemmas, and the informant's high-stakes games add so many dimensions to the plot. I could almost feel the weight of each decision, the danger lurking with every piece of leaked information, and the tension between loyalty and survival.
The narrator does an outstanding job capturing the raw emotion of each scene, making it impossible to pause. If you love crime thrillers with complex characters, unpredictable twists, and a plot that dives into the murky gray areas of justice, Shadows on the Badge is a must-listen. Don’t miss out on this electrifying story!
