Synopsis: “The action is breathtaking and the book is a spellbinding view of a world like no other.”—Detroit News
Another night falls on New York City. A victim screams. A siren wails. Eddie Kennedy is on his beat. He’s a gold shield homicide detective, and his next week of investigations is a journey you will never forget—an electrifying rite of passage into the heart of what it takes to be a cop. From hookers to murderers, from street-wise muggers to stationhouse rats, from the hectic squad room to a bloody alley, Kennedy takes on a killing city—and takes the reader on a rare ride into a frightening hidden world.
