- Summary
- "What is it like to corner a murderer? To unmask a hidden killer? To bring justice to a long-forgotten victim? In The Blue Religion, a dazzling lineup of the best crime writers working today reveal the thrills and dangers of being a cop. Filled to the brim with gripping showdowns, these tales go beyond the exhilaration of the chase to show the true burden of the badge. They examine the lives of lawmen and -women who decorate their office desks not with photos of family and friends but with pictures of victims whose killers they still hunt."--BOOK JACKET.
