Past Imperfect (Sigrid Harald)

Sixty-one days before Detective Mick Cluett is due to retire, someone shoots him out in Sheepshead Bay and his murder quickly triggers the death of a young computer clerk who ran the murder gun's serial number through the data banks four years earlier. As the investigation develops, Lt. Sigrid Harald realizes that Cluett's murder may be tied to the on-duty death of her own father and that the killer may be closer to her than she ever imagined. "...a terse, technically expert police procedural, its hard-boiled plot undiluted by sentimentality." - Publishers Weekly
