Official synopsis Publisher
It’s two o’clock in the morning, and Det. Sgt. Leah Harris is standing over the savagely slashed body of a young college co-ed, Christina Herrera. For Leah, a lead homicide investigator for the Seattle Police Department, this much is routine. However, a photograph found lying on the victim’s dresser has Harris in a state of near panic. It’s a picture of a man Harris knows only too well–John Darby, also a Seattle cop. But more importantly, Darby is Leah Harris’ lover. Bad goes to worse. Teamed with Internal Affairs investigator Frank Milkovich, Harris soon learns that the motive for the killing seems to have been more than just jealous rage. Christina’s uncle, a well-respected local banker, has links to a Colombian drug cartel. Further, he may be using dirty cops, in a conspiracy to move large quantities of illegal drugs into the Pacific Northwest. Are they on track, or not? Or is this just a part of The Double Bluff? In the explosive 24-hours that follow, they’ll soon know that and more.
