Four to Midnight - A Novel

It is a call no supervisor wants to hear -- a late-night summons that pulls Sergeant Eddie North to the dark, deserted streets of West Philadelphia. A powerful African American city councilman has been savagely beaten, and he''s accusing two Philly policemen of the assault. Suddenly a good cop is plunged into the center of a media circus fueled by rage, mistrust, and blind hatred, further straining relations between the police and the black community. But finding the truth in a mountain of lies may prove impossible -- even fatal -- for Eddie North, forcing him to cross the line to do what he feels is right. Because a cop killer is emerging from the shadows to wreak a terrible vengeance as the battle heats up between a community and its "protectors." And in the end, only the strongest -- and the luckiest -- will survive.
