What happens when a small-town American police officer is dropped into the middle of a collapsing nation?
After a career in rural law enforcement in Washington State, Michael Jaquish accepted an assignment to manage diplomatic security operations for the U.S. State Department in West Africa. It sounded like the next step in an adventurous career.
Instead, he found himself caught in the middle of civil wars, political coups, intelligence operations, embassy evacuations, and the daily struggle to survive in countries where law itself had begun to unravel.
From the streets of Liberia to The Gambia and Sierra Leone, A Country Cop in Africa takes readers far beyond the headlines and into a world few outsiders ever experience. Along the way are moments of danger, humor, heartbreak, unexpected friendships, and remarkable acts of courage that reveal both the best and the worst of human nature.
But this is more than an adventure memoir.
It is the story of a man who spent years believing that justice, accountability, and the rule of law formed the foundation of civilization—only to discover what happens when those foundations disappear.
Part travel memoir, part political history, part law enforcement chronicle, and part personal journey, A Country Cop in Africa explores not only a turbulent chapter in African history, but the deeper question of what remains of our humanity when civilization itself begins to fracture.
For readers who enjoy true adventure, international intrigue, and thoughtful memoirs that examine the human condition, this unforgettable journey offers far more than stories of Africa. It offers a new way of seeing the world.
