Zero Fail by Carol Leonnig is a fascinating look at the US Secret Service. I've always looked at the Service as the elite of law enforcement, but this book is full of gossip and anecdotes that will simply disgust you.

It's definitely worth reading as you learn a lot. But ultimately it is a revelation that the Secret Service is far from elite.

On a somewhat similar vein, I read "Mindhunter" years ago, John Douglas's book about starting the FBI's psychological profiling unit.  One bit I remember was when they made "Silence of the Lambs" - Scott Glenn, who played a character loosely based on Douglas, reversed his position on the death penalty after working with Douglas.
