Joseph Wambaugh meets Michael Connelly in this nuanced police procedural series debut from a veteran of the Iraq War and Oakland Police Department

A veteran-turned-detective struggling with PTSD and alcoholism lands a case that will either make—or break—his flagging career in the Oakland Homicide Squad

When a teenager from a wealthy suburb outside of Oakland, California is dumped at an inner-city bus stop, homicide detective Matt Sinclair catches the case. It’s his first since being bumped to desk duty for a bust that went south. With few leads and plenty of attention, it's the worst kind of case to help him get back up to speed.

And it only gets worse as the bodies start to pile up—first at the same bus bench, then around the city. Sinclair is unable to link the victims to each other, and the killer is just getting started. Time is running out on Sinclair’s career, not to mention the people closest to him.

Brian Thiem, author of the acclaimed series debut Red Line, spent 25 years with the Oakland Police Department, working Homicide as a detective sergeant and later as the commander of the Homicide Section. He also spent 28 years of combined active and reserve duty in the Army, retiring as a Lieutenant Colonel. His final assignment was a tour in Iraq as the Deputy Commander of the Criminal Investigation Group (CID) for the Middle East. He lives in South Carolina.
