According to Jim, he was inspired to write the book during his years working in the public school system. It was originally titled B is for Badge until, after a recent battle with writer's block, Alex Potter, Jim's wife and fellow D6 member, suggested creating a German Shepherd police dog narrator. "Her idea cuased a seismic shift in my thinking," comments Jim.
