Dr Leroy Logan, MBE, worked in the Metropolitan Police for 30 years, reaching the rank of Superintendent before retiring. Born in 1957 to Jamaican parents, he is a proud Londoner and a staunch Arsenal fan. He works now as an advocate for good relationships between the police and Britain’s minority ethnic communities, a mentor to young people, and an advisor on knife crime. Closing Ranks is his first book, and his story was brilliantly brought to life by John Boyega in Small Axe: Red White and Blue, part of Steve McQueen’s multi award-winning film anthology.
