Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Port Arthur, Dunblane, Aramoana, Raurimu - they are names synonymous with civilian massacres, symptoms of an increasing violent society. Zero-Alpha takes you behind the scens with the New Zealand Police Armed Offenders Squads and Anti-Terrorist Squad, and brings together never-before-published material that is provocative and revealing. This book, with accounts written by the police involved, will give you an unrivalled insight into some of the tragedies and near tragedies in New Zealand history, and help explain the biggest question of all: Why? From the days of the Armed Constabulary to the point where women are now in charge of an Armed Offenders Squad, Zero-Aplha will allow you to discover why the AOS was created in the first place, how its members cope under pressure, and what really happened in some high profile cases.
