REVIEWS: "Authentic police procedural-right down to the grisly autopsies." Bushnell On Books "The story starts on a deceptively ordinary day. Then, only a few lines in, everything changes..." Portland Press Herald "Framed by the challenges street people face in large cities, this compelling, fast-paced police procedural offers a complex plot, and rich insight into the rigors of the cop's life."
