the shift respond to a triple homicide, diffuse a tense hostage situation, and
hunt down a killer.

cases, complete with car chases.

overprotective mother.
Between a flirty neighbor,
internet dating, and a promising connection with a nurse who showed him
compassion in a time of need, the time of being alone could be over for him.

Note: This book contains profanities and situations not for the faint of heart. There is also dark, or what some call 'gallows humor' that police officers, and most other first responders use to deal with the ugliness that is thrown their way on a regular basis. This book is as realistic as it gets. Unless you are riding around in a squad car, now that's real.
