Publisher's summary
On a chilly Oregon morning, a policeman is found slain near the homeless camp where he'd been passing out blankets the night before. When Detective Jackson is called to the scene, witnesses point to a pair of mentally ill street twins as the likely perpetrators.
As the case progresses and arrests are made, the homeless community revolts against the police, and the chaos pulls detectives away from their investigations. Tension mounts, and the evidence begins to link a series of sexual assaults to the death of the murdered officer. The task force is quickly faced with a dangerous decision: Should they risk the life of another young victim to catch the killer?

Great story
I love how the story grips you from the beginning and gets you hooked and the narrator just makes the characters come to life.

Audible's Got A Weird Computer Error Here
I just listened to Patrick Lawlor narrate, L.J. Seller's novel named "Wrongful Death". Which Audible/Amazon's computers have confused and mixed with reviews of Dan John Miller's read of Robert Dugoni's book entitled, "Wrongful Death". So this is a review of Seller's novel about a cop murdered outside of a homeless settlement. It's a police procedural that's just OK.
There are some interesting twists, but Seller's is interested in dramatizing alleged harassment of America's homeless by police. He's also very uncomfortable with social drinking as a gateway to alcoholism. Oh, and he's uncritical of the political correctness movement in general. Now each of these can make for interesting cultural tension and riveting plot while paying off the larger narrative.
Unfortunately Seller's narrative wags the dog of plot producing predictable results. And Patrick Lawlor's flat reading doesn't help much to add tension to the various (and not particularly interesting) sub plots designed to either develop unnecessary character depth or pad out what really is a short murder mystery..
OK, the book was a kind of elevator music while I did chores, and kept me listening until the end. But I wish I'd invested this credit more wisely.
