Nathaniel Dresden never really got along with his father, an
infamous civil rights lawyer who defended criminals and
spearheaded protest movements. As an act of rebellion, Natty
joined the U.S. Army and served in Iraq, coming back with a
chest full of commendations and a head full of disturbing
memories. But when his father is found murdered near the peaceful
confines of Brooklyn’s Prospect Park, Natty is forced to
deal with the troubled legacy of their unresolved
relationship. He also has to fend off the growing suspicions
of NYPD Detective Lourdes Robles, a brash Latina cop with
something to prove, who thinks Natty might bear some
responsibility for his father’s death. Though truth be told,
the list of people—cops and criminals—who wanted David
Dresden out of the way is long. The search for answers leads
Natty and Lourdes into an urban labyrinth where they must
confront each other—and the brutal truths that could destroy
them both. Proving Ground, New York Times bestseller and
Edgar Award winner Peter Blauner’s first novel in more than
a decade, is a sweeping crime novel, an intricate story
about the quest for redemption, and a vibrant portrait of
contemporary New York City, all told in Blauner’s singular
voice.
