About the book:
The thrilling biography “Crime, Grime, and Gumption” takes readers on a tour of the life and career of legendary Indian law enforcement figure O.P. Singh. Singh’s journey, from his modest upbringing to his ascent to the rank of renowned government servant, is both captivating and motivational.
This book is unique because it presents the reality of policing honestly and without sugarcoating or minimizing the difficulties. After a personal tragedy, Singh’s early experience with indifferent officers serves as a painful reminder of the human aspect of law enforcement, which fuels his steadfast dedication to serving the people for the rest of his life.
The story effectively combines firsthand reports of field operations, close calls with radicalism, and the day-to-day challenges of upholding law and order. What really stands out, though, is Singh’s administrative prowess and compassion beneath the heart-pounding action.

The complexity of character development—the highs, the lows, and everything in between—is what genuinely captivates. Singh shows himself to be not only a fearless police officer but also a kind leader who prioritizes the well-being of his troops and the populace.
“Crime, Grime, and Gumption” is a captivating story about courage, determination, and duty, highlighting the resilience of individuals despite adversity. Written by an expert in law enforcement, it offers a thrilling blend of crime, action, and character depth, inspiring real-life heroes.
