The young wife of a police lieutenant receives threatening phone calls; the precint's patrol cars are sabotaged; even the puppies the officers have adopted as mascots are savagely slain. It looks like there's a psycho on the loose with a vendetta against the cops. This book is a superb evocation of the real world of big city police today. It is a rare combination of action and a novel of character. Description text copyright 2005 www.BooksForComfort.net. Item ID 10086.
