Copyright 2010 Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.NEW YORK- Joseph Wambaugh is back on the Los Angeles Police Department literary beat.
It will be his first book set in Los Angeles since "The Delta Star" in 1983. The former LAPD detective is also the author of "The Onion Field," "The Blue Knight," "The Choirboys," "The Blooding" and "The Golden Orange."
"Joseph Wambaugh is a hero to today's crime writers, and `Hollywood Station' will school them all: to this day, no one writes about cops' lives with his force and immediacy," Michael Pietsch, publisher of Little, Brown, said Monday in a statement.
Wambaugh also created the TV series "Police Story."
