Detective Matt Payne is sent to Harrisburg to gather evidence against a narcotics unit that is suspected of stealing from the very people whom they have arrested. Payne is also working with the FBI in its attempt to locate several terrorists who, in 1968, blew up a scientific laboratory, killing 11 people. While walking in the footsteps of law-enforcement officers, Griffin gives a clear picture of what it is like to be a police officer, how police officers think, how politicians bring pressure to bear on their actions, and how the justice system works. Everything Griffin writes immediately goes on the best sellers lists, mainly because he tells such richly detailed stories using a huge, engaging cast of characters who by this time will have become old friends to many readers?and this book is no exception.?Jo Ann Vicarel, Cleveland Heights-University Heights P.L., OhioCopyright 1998 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. From AudioFileWorking his way through the early chapters of W.E.B. Griffin's police procedural, Josef Sommer sounds as if he's gargling with rocks. Fortunately, Sommer gets stronger the longer he talks. His versatility remains limited-he never, for example, makes one believe that he's any of Griffin's women characters-but he has a knack for punctuating the drama of a moment, which well serves Griffin's dense prose style. While the author conjures up a world of crime and punishment that makes Dostoevsky look positively minimalist, Sommer is always there to soothingly guide us back to the essentials of character and plot.
