Falls the Shadow

Who polices the police?

A cop murders his family and then turns the gun on himself. In the shed behind his cottage is a cache of weapons: Russian automatics, handguns, 9mm, .38s. You don’t need forensics to work out what’s gone wrong. This is a cop with a side racket. Which gets the attention of Captain Zara Dewane of the Internal Crime Unit. A single mom, known among cops as the Jackal. What Zara uncovers about the family murder puts her in the firing line.

There are cops running guns stolen from the police armoury. There are cops selling guns to gangsters. Thing is, the money chain goes deep into the police hierarchy. Even fingers the political bosses. Close her down, comes the order from on high. Kill her, in other words. Making Zara and her family targets. With only one way out.
