520 "A distraught businessman who is looking for help walks
into the office of a mouthy detective named Jules
Bettinger, has a conversation, walks out, and kills
himself. Because of this incident, the impolite but
decorated policeman is forced to relocate himself and his
family from their warm lives in Arizona to the frigid
north and work for an understaffed precinct in Victory,
Missouri. This collapsed rustbelt city is a dying beast
that devours itself and gnaws at its inhabitants...and has
done so for more than three decades. The streets are
covered with dead pigeons and there are seven hundred
criminals for every law enforcer. Partnered with a boorish
and demoted corporal named Dominick Williams, Jules
Bettinger investigates a double homicide in which two
policemen were killed. Suspicious by nature and vocation,
the detective looks for answers in the fringes of the city
and in the pasts of the secretive men with whom he works--
men who brutalized a local drug dealer until he was
disabled. Jules Bettinger soon begins to suspect that the
double homicide is not an isolated event, but part of a
larger plot...a prelude to a series of cop executions"--
