It'll Probably Be An Oprah Pick

Brooklyn cop pens Christmas novel, hopes major publisher takes interest: "He's a tough Brooklyn cop on a mission - to sell his heartwarming Christmas novel about his years in the 67th Precinct in Flatbush.

Lt. Dave Siev, a 19-year police vet, is calling in every favor he ever earned to get his book read - and bought by a major publisher.

'It's really like nothing you've ever read before,' said Siev of his nearly 200-page book, called 'Operation: Blue Christmas.'"
