Officer Down Book by Michael Grant
By Michael GrantOfficer Down Book by Michael Grant
"It is 1991 and the United States Government has been pressing Colombia to extradite drug dealers to the U.S. In response, the drug-cartel overlords join forces with international terrorists to form Puno Blanco, a narco-terrorist group, and initiate a daring and deadly plan: shift the battleground to New York City and export terrorism to the United States. The target: the New York City Police Department." "Only four people have a chance of stopping Puno Blanco before New York City self-destructs: Dan Morgan, a highly respected police inspector whose effectiveness may be crippled by a guilty conscience; Chris Liberti, an ambitious FBI agent who has to prove her worthiness in a virtually all-male world; Donal Castillo, a DEA agent with a knack for hand-to-hand combat whose hatred of drug dealers threatens to compromise his professionalism; and Ray Fleming, a young and frighteningly inexperienced undercover officer who becomes the crucial linchpin between the two warring groups." "Challenged by their common goals and the vision of New York City in ultimate chaos, the FBI, NYPD, and DEA unite in this tense and hard-hitting fiction. From sweaty bars to ritzy gun clubs to the Commissioner's office, Michael Grant brings to vivid life New York's battle-scarred streets, and the efforts of New York's finest to keep them under control. Filled with unforgettable characters and classic police drama, Officer Down is a standout in the genre, the most gripping and authentic crime writing since vintage Wambaugh."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
