Her worst fears are confirmed when the reporter, Brazil, presses the button to activate the boot-release rather than the siren on their first outing. He's not the only blight on her life right now: her cat's angsty, her hormones are misbehaving, her opposite number in the uniformed division is behaving like a jackass, the radio despatcher is determined to trip her up, the D.A. is in the middle of a hot battle with the trial schedule. And orange coloured corpses keep turning up on her patch. *** Quantity Available: 1. Category: Fiction; Crime; ISBN: 0399142282. ISBN/EAN: 9780399142284. Inventory No: 12110205.. 9780399142284
