Croaker: Tequila Mockingbird: An LAPD Detective Novel - Paperback

A decorated cop is dead, and the case is closed. But for one detective, the truth is just getting started.

When LAPD anti-terrorism officer Alex Waverly is found murdered in what appears to be a textbook case of domestic violence, the department wants the case buried fast-and clean. But for Detective Fey Croaker, nothing about this case adds up...and the deeper she digs, the more it reeks of cover-up.

Thrown into the crossfire between the chief of police and a power-hungry deputy chief, Fey finds herself navigating a treacherous political minefield where truth is a liability and trust is a death sentence. Torn between loyalty to her mentors and her unshakable code of integrity, Fey must decide whether protecting the department's image is worth sacrificing her own soul.

But corruption runs deep...and so do the bodies.

As the stakes escalate, Fey and her loyal crew uncover a conspiracy that could topple the very command structure of the LAPD. And the closer they get to the truth, the more dangerous the game becomes.

Will Fey bring justice to a fellow officer or become the next casualty in a war the public will never see?
