A good cop, Robbie Brownlaw was thrown from a sixth-floor
window of a downtown hotel and miraculously survived. The
traumatic incident left Robbie with a fast-track career in
the San Diego P.D.'s Homicide division . . . and a rare
neurological condition that enables him to see people's
emotional words as colored shapes—green trapezoids of envy,
red squares of deception . . .
Another good man lies dead in a blood-splattered Ford
Explorer—an ex-cop-turned-ethics investigator whose private
life was torn open by unthinkable tragedy. Whether Garrett
Asplundh's death was suicide or murder isn't immediately
apparent—but it's soon clear to Robbie and his smart, tough
partner, McKenzie Cortez, that Garrett had hard evidence of
sex, scandal, and corruption spreading deep into local
government. But pursuing the truth could prove more
emotionally devastating than Robbie ever imagined.
