Using DC as the background, the author explores a dangerous landscape of drugs and danger, loyalty and love. Two former cops, Derek Strange, black and Terry Quinn, white, are pursuing the investigation of a police shooting. But in a city that lives within the shadows of a nation's dreams, neither Strange or Quinn can forsee the dirty little war that will break out around them. No one writes urban crime novels as well as Pelecanos.
