Crisscross

Fast-moving police procedural set in political Washington, D.C., with two reluctant and incompatible homicide detectives becoming entangled in the nether world of abortion clinic bombers, radical plotters, bank scam artists and a host of other subterranean miscreants, all drawn to the nation's capital. Central to the tale is a mysterious wrought-iron swastika discovered by the detectives after the estranged wife of a Democratic congressman turns up dead. What, if anything, is its significance? The tale takes the reader from the grit and grime of Washington's streets to the wilds of West Virginia and back, as the two mismatched detectives attempt to reconcile their deep differences and solve a murder at the same time.Valentine, Paul is the author of 'Crisscross' with ISBN 9781583484029 and ISBN 1583484027.
