About
A TV investigative reporter and his sister, a San Francisco PD homicide detective, look into the slayings of Bay Area cops who have shot unarmed African Americans yet faced no repercussions in this debut thriller, perfect for fans of Jonathan Kellerman's “Unnatural History”.
When San Francisco Police Officer Mickey Driscoll is gunned down in the driveway of his suburban Bay Area home in broad daylight, the suspects are numerous. Was the murder committed by someone close to him? An arrestee seeking revenge? Or was it one of the multitude of rioters, activists, and militant groups who have been harassing his family since he accidentally shot and killed an unarmed African American honor student?
TV investigative reporter Topher Davis, the only black journalist on that beat, has exactly three weeks to do one final story before his position is eliminated due to corporate budget cuts. Enlisting the aid of his sister, SFPD Homicide Detective Lynn Sloan, he decides to investigate what the families of blacks killed by police-and the families of the cops themselves-go through when tragic events like this occur. Instead, they find themselves involved in an ever-expanding mystery as more officers who've committed the same offense turn up dead. Weaving their way through a world of grieving mothers and widows, African American militias, dirty cops, and drug dealing, they search for the truth that threatens to leave one or both siblings dead.
