In the world of cops, drive-by killings don't rank high on the popularity charts. They're usually random, and barring credible witnesses, they largely go unsolved. So when Father Robert O'Brien, a popular Washington priest with a high public profile, is murdered in a drive-by shooting, D.C. police aren't beating down doors to get the case.
Homicide detectives Frank Kearney and José Phelps have been members of the force for twenty-five years, partners from the start. They're smart cops - smart enough to know they've been played for patsies when the O'Brien murder lands in their laps. This is payback time for two cops who've been a little too brash, a little too independent.
But what appears to be a motiveless drive-by in a city with one of the nation's highest homicide rates soon turns into a dirtier, far more complex case involving corrupt politicians, self-serving media, warring drug lords, millions of dollars in questionable cash - and more murder. As Frank and José dig deeper, fending off the police bureaucracy and meddling politicos, it becomes increasingly clear that this case might cost them more than their careers. It might cost them their lives.

time in a world where time is a very valuable thing, in mp3or wma
format however; stories can be listened to anywhere and on any music
device. It doesn’t matter if you use an mp3 players or a cd player,
whether you are jogging, washing the pots or transforming the boring
commute to work with excitement and intrigue and you can listen to
them at any time.

easier to obtain than normal books, going online for them is quick,
simple and saves time that would be other wise spend trawling
through stores trying to find one you really want.
Many sites offer a few free downloadable introductory titles, to get
you started and no doubt hooked on the splendour of them. What
better way to spend a Saturday evening than to sit back, relax and
enjoy a good audiobook, instead of renting a dvd or stagnating in
front of the television. Unlike rentals, they can be kept for life
and enjoyed again and again.
