From Publishers Weekly
This police procedural, the second in the Badge of Honor series, ostensibly concerns efforts to nab a serial rapist at large in Philadelphia, but the real subjects here are the interior lives of police officers and the department politics that complicate their jobs. Unlike the genre's often embittered flatfoots who are more like their quarry than the people they serve, Dugan's ( Men in Blue ) cops, zealous recruits in the freshly minted Special Operations division, are boyish, sexy, respectful, and always and unambiguously the good guys. The plot contains practically no overt violence or graphic sex--usually the stock-in-trade of contemporary cops-and-robbers yarns--and chief characters are credibly fashioned. Pleasant enough on its own terms, the book lacks the meticulous detail and shake-'em-up style that most procedural fans expect.

Book Description
In the Badge of Honor series, W.E.B. Griffin reveals a city police force with all the authentic detail and drama that made The Corps series a phenomenal bestseller.
Here is an explosive novel of the men and women behind the badge -- a unique brotherhood of courage, loyalty and trust. Facing a desperate public, a hostile press and reluctant witnesses, they must stop a new reign of violence. A terrifying spree and kidnapping and rape has plunged the entire city in fear.
"Tough, authentic. . .police drama at its best!" --Dale Brown --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
