FALSE CONNECTION
Detective Superintendent Frank Shapiro finds himself weaving down a dark and twisted trail of human foibles that begins with his own Sergeant Donovan.
After interrupting a robbery and receiving a blow to the head for his efforts, an angry Donovan races after the suspect, only to witness a terrible car crash. Donovan saves Mikey Dickens's life, then arrests him.
But Mikey, the son of a local crime boss, is released on a technicality. And when he is later found beaten, suspicion falls on the hotheaded Irish sergeant. The young man eventually dies, and Shapiro and Inspector Liz Graham are certain of one thing: not only is Donovan's career on the line, but his life, as well. Someone is going to pay for Mikey's death. And Donovan has disappeared....
"...convincing and believable. Solidly readable, divertingly different."—Kirkus Reviews
"Deeply satisfying."—The New York Times Book Review
