From Publishers Weekly:
"Police corruption and violence abound in Fatal Truth, Robin Burcell's second novel (after 'Every Move She Makes') starring San Francisco homicide inspector Kate Gillespie. On the way to meet with a snitch, Kate witnesses his murder. The culprit, a corrupt narcotics investigator, turns up dead several hours later. Unsure of whom she can trust, Kate turns to her ex-partner, PI Sam Scolari, and Mike Torrance, an internal affairs detective and former romantic flame. Both men assist Kate as she investigates the two killings and discovers some surprising links to a 12-year-old scandal involving her brother, his wife and their young son. Through sharp, staccato prose, Burcell delivers a taut police procedural stuffed with law enforcement jargon and exhilarating action sequences."

I walked into my library branch only to find myself arrested (pun intended!) by a tub of withdrawn paperbacks, marked 5 for $1 - I couldn't see keeping my BC membership in good standing if I passed that up! I've heard of the author and series, and had been meaning to check them out, so this book (2nd in the series) will have to sit on Mt. TBR a little while until I've read book one.

[Note: since it's Withdrawn from the library, it's got that stamped on the edges of the pages, but is otherwise in decent condition.]
