Customer Reviews

Random act of senseless violence or premeditated murder?

Police detective Norah Mulcahaney finds all is not as it first appears in this murder mystery tale of deception, double-crossing, drug dealing, money-laundering, and political fund-raising. What begins as a call to investigate a random act of senseless violence at a school-yard ends up becoming an impassioned murder investigation for Norah and her anchorman boyfriend, who ultimately pays the highest price for his maverick style of investigation into corruption in high places.A good read for a sleepless night or a day at the beach, the plot is interesting and plausible, and the characters real enough to care about.
