I was very excited when I found out the film, by the same name, was based on a book by the lead detective Ron Stallworth. I will say having seen the film first I was left somewhat sad by the dramatizations included in the film that in reality did not happen and simultaneously surprised by the interesting facts that weren't included. I find books like this so hard to review because as compelling and well written they may be the horrific subject matter has such a huge impact. But this is extremely well done and I'm so glad Ron also narrated the audiobook which is just a big bonus to me.
