About this ebook
Five years ago, the police department was shattered when a psychotic hit man turned his rage against homicide detectives and their families. Now, the evidence suggests that the same killer has returned.
For Andy, a newly promoted supervisor who was targeted five years ago, digging into this case could mean opening old wounds. For his former partner, a washed-out drunk, those old wounds never healed at all...
Approximately 32 paperback pages, a novelette.

Coins on the dead guy’s eyes, Sarge
Detective Weingart blurted on his way into my office, waving a fan of photos in his right hand.
Ever since I took the Sergeant Major job I had tried to leave my office door open, but I expected my officers to knock on their way in. That way, if I’m on the phone or sending an email I can at least finish before I give the detective the nod to go ahead. This time, Charlie Weingart didn’t bother to knock or to wait.

Three shots?
I asked, since the blood and the mangled state of the man’s forehead made it hard to tell.

I put the papers down and wiped at my temples. I was sweating. I
