Near the end of the 1980’s, a medium size town in Washington State is experiencing a crime wave, which is unparalleled. What makes it unique is that it is not the citizens whom are in jeopardy, but rather those who are sworn to protect them.
Someone with skill and serious motivations is depleting the police ranks in very creative and devious ways. Two detectives, who are for the most part diametrically opposed; are thrown into the fray. It’s their job to try and solve the cases, considering all of the stumbling blocks that are placed in front of them. The detectives aren’t overly smart or inept as portrayed in a lot of police forums. These two are slightly above average cops who do not necessarily triumph with talent, but they do excel with their efforts.
The story follows the trials and tribulations of their attempts to exact justice in a society that prohibits law enforcement from certain tactics other countries have at their disposal. Experts say, “To stop terrorists you need to use terrorist tactics.” Likewise to deal with aggressive criminals you need to be able to use aggressive tactics.
These detectives are trying to do the best they can with what they are allowed. They are forced to step over the thin blue line at times, as duty bond to try and scale the blue wall that often confronts them. Some of the things they do discover are best kept confidential.
