Maureen Coughlin is complicated--tough and naive, street-smart and vulnerable. And, way too often, reckless. When we meet her, she's in rough shape. A rookie beat cop in the New Orleans Police Department, she's already been suspended once, and things are about to get worse. The FBI has arrived in town on the trail of a ruthless, white supremacist militia group called the Watchmen Brigade, and no one in the NOPD wants to work with them. Guess which suspended rookie is told she doesn't have a choice?
Things go badly wrong. And when brilliant but impulsive Maureen lights a match, New Orleans might just explode.Author Biography
