About This Item
New York. 1986. Mysterious Press. 1st Printing. Spine Slightly Cocked, Otherwise Very Good in Dustjacket. 0892962356. 280 pages. hardcover. Jacket painting by Gamache. keywords: Mystery America Los Angeles . FROM THE PUBLISHER - SUICIDE HILL is the third volume in the saga of Sergeant Lloyd Hopkins, whose previous exploits were chronicled in BLOOD ON THE MOON and BECAUSE THE NIGHT. In disgrace after a badly handled arrest in New Orleans, Hopkins is assigned as liaison officer to an FBI investigation of a series of diabolical and clever bank robberies. Three men have done their homework: they choose bank managers who are having affairs, kidnaps their girlfriends, and force the managers to open the banks early. . Hopkins' insights into the criminal mind bear fruit when the bank robbers turn violent and he finds himself with a bit of information he would just as soon not have - information about police corruption that reaches into the office of his sworn enemy, Fred Gaffney, head of the Internal Affairs Division. Ridding the Department of Hopkins is the culmination of years of effort on Gaffney's part: with the information Hopkins has uncovered, though, Gaffney's career - and his very life - will be put in jeopardy. inventory #36912 ISBN: 0892962356.
