  • "Deputy District Attorney Samantha Kincaid likes to be where the action is: at the scene of a crime, at the arrest of a suspect, with the cops on the Major Crimes Team. But when street smart, plugged-in reporter Percy Crenshaw is brutally murdered in the midst of pursuing a major story, she knows the stakes are high. Within days, cops have a suspect; then a confession. Yet Samantha suspects that something is very wrong, and her concerns keep coming back to the police. The cop who got the confession used tough tactics. The murdered reporter was romantically linked to a cop's wife. And all of the cops she's concerned about are close to her live-in boyfriend, Detective Chuck Forbes. Forced to prosecute a case in which the defendant may be an innocent man, Samantha must tread carefully to uncover the truth about Percy's murder--without tearing her career, her home life, and the city apart. But just when she thinks her job can't get any more difficult, another more shocking crime comes to light."

  • "In Portland, Oregon reporter Percy Crenshaw has been bludgeoned to death in his carport and District Attorney Samantha Kincaid attends the case. Tensions are running high after a police officer shot and killed a mother of two, prompting anti-police demonstrations. It seems that Crenshaw's death is not unrelated: soon two men are arrested after a crime spree. One of the suspects claims coercive police tactics and Samantha finds herself digging for more evidence. Her search leads her to the city's drug trade and to officers in the bureau's Northeast precinct. After alienating her boyfriend, Detective Chuck Forbes, and the cops, Samantha is unsure whom to trust. She tracks Crenshaw's path for clues, but it's a path that could lead to the same fatal end."
