About This Book
A veteran deputy in a metropolitan police force finds his standing threatened after an unremarkable but enigmatic newcomer arrives and departmental assignments shift away from him. Facing the frustration of being used as a public mouthpiece while others handle the hot leads, he seizes a chance to regain prestige by focusing on a long-stalled case and following a tip linking a captivating woman to the suspect Binhart. The narrative traces his tactical maneuvering, growing suspicion of internal sabotage, and the collision of personal ambition with bureaucratic intrigue as he attempts to engineer a career-making capture.
