Discretion is the key word two young rookies on the New York Police Department must employ. The West Bronx natives have dreamt of becoming members of the prestigious NYPD since childhood, but their reality is turning into a nightmare. Jim Mackery subdues a cop killer in his road to detective, but his best friend Frankie Driscoll ends up in prison. Driscoll’s undercover detail must be kept from Mackery and mistrust creates a rift in the friendship until a rogue police sergeant, pedophile priest and shared childhood secret loom large in the investigation of a runaway’s murder.'...an imaginative, fast-paced thriller with ironic twists and surprises a-plenty.
