December 15, 1919. The corner of Fourth and Court streets becomes a killing ground when Merchant Patrolman Harry E. Baker is shot dead in the early morning fog. It looks like a simple, botched robbery in the booming industrial city known as Little Chicago. But for the detectives on the case, the trail of blood leads not across the river, but hundreds of miles south, back to the dark hollows of Eastern Kentucky.
MURDERED ON PATROL is the explosive second volume of The Little Chicago Chronicles, unearthing the generations of violence that shaped the men who pulled the trigger. They are three young veterans-Nelson Barger, scarred by the trenches of France; Kimber Baker, whose father is a deputy sheriff in a county where a badge is just another weapon; and Hargis Callahan, the teenage heir apparent to the bloodiest feud in Kentucky history. They came north to the factories of Ohio to escape the past, but the brutal code of honor they were raised on came with them.
