In 1988, journalist David Simon was given unprecedented access to the Baltimore Police Department's homicide unit. Over the next twelve months, he shadowed detectives as they took on a slew of killings in a city where killings were common. Only the most heinous cases stood out-chief amongst them, the rape and murder of eleven-year-old Latonya Wallace.
Originally published in 1991, Simon's 'Homicide' became the basis for the acclaimed television show 'Homicide: Life on the Streets' and inspired HBO's 'The Wire'. Now, this true-crime classic is reenvisioned as a gritty two-part graphic novel series.
