- Baker & Taylor
Homicide Department head Artie Dolan and officer Colleen Greer assist the narcotics police with an investigation into a young boy's suspicious overdose death and find links between the case and the abandonment of four precocious kids. - Baker & Taylor
Struggling with schedule difficulties and personal challenges that have resulted in officer shortages, Homicide Department head Artie Dolan and officer Colleen Greer assist the Narcotics police with an investigation into a young boy's suspicious overdose death and find links between the case and the abandonment of four precocious kids. - Blackwell North Amer
The homicide world is upside down: Richard Christie is in the hospital, Artie Dolan is headed away on vacation, John Potocki's life is falling apart, and Colleen Greer is so worried about her boss's health, she can hardly think. A young boy in Pittsburgh's North Side neighborhood dies of a suspicious overdose. The narcotics police are working on tips and they draft Colleen and Potocki to help them. In this same neighborhood, four young kids have been abandoned and are living on their own. The Philips kids - brainy in school - are reluctant to compromise themselves. But they need cash. Connecting these people and their stories is Nick Banks, just out of prison and working off a debt to an old acquaintance involved in the drug trade. Nick is a charmer, a gentle fellow who's had a lot of trouble in his life. One day he gives free food to the Philips kids, little guessing how connected their lives are about to become. - McMillan PalgraveThe Homicide Department is upside downâRichard Christie is in the hospital, Artie Dolan is headed away on vacation, John Potockiâs life is falling apart, and Colleen Greer is so worried about her bossâs health, she can hardly think.
