Butch Karp, bk. 29Thorndike Press large print thriller

Tensions have been building between the police and black rights activists in Harlem and they reach a boiling point when a cop shoots down a seemingly unarmed teenager. The community, believing the teen had no weapon, rises up in anger and demands to have the officer prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. But there's something more than a call for justice at work here: a plot to bring down the city's police force through a conspiracy so vast and malicious only N.Y.D.A. Roger "Butch" Karp and his band of truth-seekers can untangle it. Karp, along with Marlene Ciampi and an eclectic cast of characters, seeks to unravel the murder mystery without fear or favor
