Summary:

"The rough streets of the south Bronx. Home to countless gangs, pimps, and hustlers. Where a gunshot is as common as a baby crying. Where a day without murder is an oddity. This is where ten-year police veteran Michael Beckett has spent most of his career. When he lands a walk-on role on a popular network cop show, Beckett hopes to trade in chasing rapists, drug dealers, and murderers for a new life in front of the camera, and maybe even to settle down with the young, hot writer on the show, Solana Ortiz. But when Solana's neighborhood in the south Bronx goes up in flames in a string of arsons, Beckett must put aside his caviar dreams and do what he does best--police work. With the help of his mercurial partner, Vinnie D'Amato, Michael Beckett unlocks a heinous scheme that reaches into the deepest pockets of power and greed in New York City."--p. [4] of cover.
