A hard-boiled street cop must
confront the unthinkable...again! For the second time in Joe Stryker’s headline-grabbing police career, a partner is brutally slain in the line of duty . . . almost in front of Joe's eyes. In this sequel to the award-winning Murder on the Tracks, set in 1951 Denver, Joe faces two baffling questions: How did the killer pull off such a brazen murder? And why was Joe’s partner—a cop so by-the-book that fellow officers scornfully nicknamed him “Saint Benedict”—murdered while burglarizing a pawnshop? To protect his dead partner’s reputation—and save his own career—Joe is forced to operate in the shadows to find the truth behind the unexplainable. All while dodging a homicide detective hell-bent to pin the crimes on Joe. Before he can answer the baffling questions and track down the brutal killer, Joe once again must risk his career, his marriage . . . and his life. "Joe Stryker is a hard-nosed, no-holds-barred street cop unafraid of poking the proverbial bear."
