by Theresa Schwegel
Review this book!
This police procedural won the Mystery Writers of America's 2006 Edgar Award for Best First Novel. Chicago police office Samantha "Smack" Mack has to cancel a date to help her ex-partner and ex-lover, Fred, bust a child molester. Her evening only gets worse; the arrest goes sour, she gets hit on the head, and she awakes from a severe concussion to learn that Fred's been shot and killed...with her gun. Not buying the official story of "friendly fire," and facing the department's hostility, Smack takes it upon herself to clear her name and find out what really happened that night.

"[I]nstantly engrossing....Schwegel's sympathetic protagonist and fast-paced action turns out an impressive, gripping first novel."
