Book excerpt: FROM THE QUIET LIFE TO THE KILLING GROUND That morning Fraleigh, the high-tech boomtowns unorthodox new chief of detectives, had supervised a quiet stakeout. Now the mayors aide had been gunned down, and an innocent young woman was near death. There were indeed peculiar things going on in Silicon City. But the temptation of hard drugs, hot gold, or something even more priceless could explain everything. Power and greed were making suspiciously strange bedfellows out of certain local cops, politicos, and mob members. And that threatened to put a lot of people to sleep permanently.
