Two Chicago cops need to defuse an explosive situation in this ';tightly plotted' police procedural (Chicago Tribune). After killing his wife and her lover, an unhinged and heavily armed Chicago cop named Bernie Shepard barricades himself at the top of a high-rise apartment building and sends a message to the police: meet his demands, or he'll detonate enough explosives to blow the whole block sky high. If it's a choice between chewing the fat at his brother Maish's deli or hunting down armed lunatics, world-weary veteran cop Abe Lieberman knows where he stands. But no one's giving him a choice. It's up to Lieberman and his longtime partner, Bill Hanrahanaka the Rabbi and Father Murphyto play Bernie's game, betting their lives on a madman's whim. With a crazed cop holding ';enough explosives to blow the North Side of Chicago to kingdom come... Kaminsky mines plenty of suspense' (The New York Times Book Review).
