Place a Hold
Annotation:A true and very informative description of the Hells Angels take over in Ontario
Annotation:Michael Connelly’s The Drop is another superb entry in this outstanding series about an L. A. cop who is cynical and battle-weary, yet still committed to doing his job. Connelly juggles his plot brilliantly while he keeps us guessing about the outcome.
Annotation:This funny satire is the ninth of the ten Martin Beck mysteries. The series have literary quality and dramatically skillful plotting. Start at one and take the trip, it’s worth it.
