Quicksand: The beginning of an engrossing new
suspense series featuring Philadelphia policewoman Nora
Khalil by Carolyn Baugh, acclaimed author of The View
From Garden City.
Officer Nora Khalil is used to
navigating different terrains. As part of a joint task force
set up by the Philadelphia Police Department, the FBI, and
the local sheriff's offices, she works to keep Philly's mean
streets safe from gang violence, while trying to honor the
expectations of her traditional Egyptian-American family.
She can hold her own against hardened murderers and rapists,
and her years as a competitive runner ensure that no suspect
ever escapes on foot.
Nora tries to keep her
professional and personal lives separate, but when a
mutilated body is discovered in a tough section of town,
Nora must rely on both her police training and her cultural
background to find out whether this is another gang-related
killing or the grisly evidence of something even darker and
more disturbing.
