From the award-winning author of the Japantown Mysteries, trouble awaits rookie LAPD Officer Ellie Rush as she patrols the mean streets of Los Angeles on her bicycle . . .
Bike cop Ellie Rush dreams of becoming a homicide detective, but it's still a shock when the first dead body she encounters on the job is that of a former college classmate.
At the behest of her Aunt Cheryl, the highest-ranking Asian-American officer in the LAPD (a source of pride for Ellie's grandmother, but annoyance to her mom), Ellie becomes tangled in the investigation of the coed's murder—with equal parts help and hindrance from her nosy best friend, her over-involved ex-boyfriend, a smoldering detective, and seemingly everyone else in her extended family . . . only to uncover secrets that a killer may go to any lengths to ensure stay hidden.
Naomi Hirahara is the Edgar Award-winning author of the Mas Arai Mysteries and the first Ellie Rush Mystery, Murder on Bamboo Lane. Her historical Japantown Mystery, Clark and Division, which won the Mary Higgins Clark Award, is followed by Evergreen. She has also written a mystery series set in Kauai and a middle-grade novel, 1001 Cranes.
