Synopsis: For fans of Kathy Reichs and Linda Fairstein, Richard Hilary Weber's new Brooklyn Crimes short novel follows police detective Flo Ott as she crisscrosses the borough's mean streets and lands in the crosshairs of a highly skilled assassin. NYPD detective Flo Ott has rotten luck. First she's put on bodyguard duty for U.S. Senator-elect Cecil King after a ultra-right-wing terror cell announces plans to assassinate him. Then she's saddled with investigating the homicide of a hip-hop mogul. Ballz Busta was fatally rapped on his head outside his mistress's Park Slope condo. The two jobs couldn't be more different. Finding Busta's killer takes Flo into the outrageous livin' large margins of the Brooklyn music scene. Keeping Senator-elect King alive requires constant vigilance as well-trained assassins could strike anytime, anywhere. It's only when these cases explosively collide that Flo realizes she's finally caught a break. What she doesn't know is that she's lit a fanatic's fuse and now he has a new target: the woman cop with the nerve to try and stop his murderous schemes.
