Very Good in Dustjacket . 0394411390. 244 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Carla Barr. keywords: Mystery Crime . FROM THE PUBLISHER - Paul Chevigny is one of the nation's leading civil liberties attorneys, the defender of hundreds of men and women, from Black Panthers to the prisoners of Attica. He has become the country's leading authority on police abuse and police provocation, the subjects of his two earlier books. Chevigny's first work of fiction, a highly realistic novel of crime and punishment, makes convincing use of this vast and comprehensive knowledge. He is at home equally in the office of the assistant D.A., the prison cell, the ghetto bar, the welfare office. Here is the world of daily injustices, police corruption, and police provocation, the Streets, the Courts, the jails as they really are. Few novels have described this world with such accuracy, such intelligence, such originality. The story revolves around a vicious policeman, Willy Stella, whose murder of one man and attempted murder of another are ignored by the police hierarchy. A group of young radicals who decide to avenge his victims find themselves caught up in an increasingly complex net in which the would-be avengers become the pursued. The book is thus the story of a series of crimes, of their discovery and their solution. But the truth is not unraveled by a mythical detective hero; it comes about through the interrelationships of a fascinating group of very real people. inventory #23319. Seller Inventory # z23319
