Description:
They were only rookies …
Two green cops blown
away on the killer walkways of New York. Fort Apache, The Bronx … the 41st
Precinct where nobody ever gets a second chance, and most don’t even have a
first. Now the Force is on the prowl under a tough new captain who is
determined to shape up this last command for losers where life is mean and
death is often murder and where the law of the jungle is the only law.

Writing isn't about the destination.
Writing is the journey that transforms the soul and gives meaning to all else.
