The Front
By Patricia Cornwell
Publisher: Little, Brown And Company
Language: English
 
At Risk featured Massachusetts state investigator Win Garano, a shrewd man of mixed-race background and a notinconsiderable chip on his shoulder; District Attorney Monique Lamont, a hard-charging woman with powerful ambitions and a troubling willingness to cut corners; and Garanos grandmother, who has certain unpredictable talents that you ignore at your peril.
And in The Front, peril is what comes to them all. D.A. Lamont has a special job for Garano. As part of a new public relations campaign about the dangers of declining neighborhoods, shes sending him to Watertown to come up with a drama, and she thinks she knows just the case that will serve. Garano is very skeptical, because he knows that Watertown is also the home base for a loose association of municipal police departments called the FRONT, set up in order that they dont have to be so dependent on the statemuch to Lamonts anger. He senses a much deeper agenda herebut he has no idea just how deep it goes. In the days that follow, hell find that Lamonts task, and the places it leads him, will resemble a house of mirrorseverywhere he turns, hes not quite sure if what hes seeing is true.
