A police officer in need of extra work, Kubicek spends New Year&rsquo;s Eve moonlighting as a security guard at an upscale Grosse Pointe party. Just before midnight, in the sea of white faces, he sees three black men, a shotgun, and a pistol. Shooting more accurately than he ever has on the firing range, he takes out the would-be burglars in less than a minute. Only after they are all dead does he realize one man was unarmed.</div><DIV>&#160;</div><DIV>The police department asks Charlie Battle, one of its few African American officers, to head up the investigation into Kubicek&rsquo;s shooting. As racial tensions threaten to tear Detroit apart, Battle tries to break through the department&rsquo;s code of silence, fighting for truth in a city where lies are a way of life.</div><DIV>&#160;</div><DIV>This ebook features an illustrated biography of Loren D. Estleman including rare photos from the author&rsquo;s personal collection.</div><DIV></div>
