I'm doing research for my next novel, which includes a character who is a Minneapolis homicide sergeant, and I'm a stickler for authenticity wherever possible. Upon arriving home at night, he needs to place his badge and gun somewhere. He's married; no kids. And his wife is being stalked.
Would it be most authentic (not necessarily safest) for him to keep it in a locked box? A nightstand drawer? Somewhere else? Away from ammunition? Near it? Unloaded? What is typical, and what would you recommend for said character?
Thanks in advance for your contribution!
