About this title

Synopsis

The brutal shotgun murders of a Brooklyn candy-store owner and a New York City police lieutenant are the first in a series of killings that challenges--and haunts--investigating officer Lt. Tony Scanlon

Reviews

This second police procedural by the author of One Police Plaza deals with the death of an exemplary police lieutenant and the owner of a neighborhood candy store in an apparent robbery attempt. Lt. Tony Scanlon's investigation turns up more questions than answers as he sifts through an odd assortment of characters, the seemingly unrelated murder of the candy store owner's son and his wife, and discovers that "role model" Joe Gallagher's behavior on and off "the Job" left something to be desired. A retired police veteran, Caunitz paints a vivid, violent picture of police work and the people involved on either side of the law, but the graphic descriptions of amputee Scanlon's sexual difficulties and his efforts to solve them seem excessive and will undoubtedly offend some. Still, enthusiasts of the genre will find much to enjoy here. Judith A. Gifford, Salve Regina Coll. Lib., Newport, R.I.
