Produktbeschreibung
Joe Gunther gets the call that every law enforcement person hates and every friend and family member of a policeman fears--a cop has been murdered in the line of duty. Deputy Sheriff Brian Sleuter has been shot to death during a routine traffic stop on a dark country road. From what can been seen on the cruiser's tape recorder of the killers, it is believed that they are a couple of Boston-based drug runners who were stopped by the deputy on their way from Canada down to Boston. That brings Gunther and his major crimes team into the investigation--and eventually to Alan Budney, the disaffected son of a Maine lobsterman, now a drug kingpin, who uses the closed, clannish lobster fishing community, and his extended family in particular, to move drugs along the New England coast.
Autorenporträt
Archer Mayor is the author of the highly acclaimed Vermont-based series which the Chicago Tribune describes as "The best police procedurals being written in America." He is a death investigator for Vermont's Office of the Chief Medical Examiner and a detective with 25 years of experience as a volunteer firefighter/EMT. In addition to writing novels and occasional articles, Mayor gives talks and workshops all around the country including the Colby College seminar on forensic sciences in Waterville, Maine. Whereas many writers base their books only on interviews and scholarly research, Mayor's novels are based on actual experience in the field. The result adds a depth, detail and veracity to his characters and their tribulations that has led The New York Times to call him "the boss man on procedures." Mayor's critically-acclaimed series of police novels routinely gather high praise from such sources as: The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, New Yorker, Publisher's Weekly, and others, often appearing on their "ten best" yearly lists.
