Slow Response — cover concept showing an officer on a rain-lit street at dusk

Cover concept — not final

Coming 2027

Most people start winding down at fifty. Jack Forrest signed up. Slow Response is the honest, funny and sometimes bruising account of a man pulling on a police uniform for the first time in his fiftieth year — training alongside recruits half his age, learning a language of codes and callouts, and finding out what half a century of another life is actually worth on a dark street at two in the morning.

A memoir by Jack Forrest. Being written now — more to share soon.
