Taken by Surprise - Paperback

by Diane M. McPhee (Author)

Boston Detective Alan Sharp is devastated. His unofficial police informant, Marko Miller, has been found dead in the remains of a burnt out house on St. Botolph Street in the Back Bay. The detective's investigation leads to a mysterious muddle of money, counter-culture and a surprising new perspective on Marko.

As Alan faces the facts of the case, he struggles with the idea of being past his prime and aging in a field that requires him to give his all... and then some. With over thirty years of police work behind him, can he rise above his doubts or will this case be his last?
