After nearly twenty-five years as a cop - riding high on the excitement, danger and stress of his work, feeling invincible - Craig Semple realised he could no longer outrun the symptoms of post- traumatic stress disorder. His first book, The Cop Who Fell to Earth, is his story of transformation and profound personal growth. His second book, Getting Back Up Again, shines a light on strategies for navigating, surviving and growing through life's challenges.
