Homicide cop Joe Andre knows how things work in lower Manhattan. Go by the rules and you get the runaround. Break them and you get in over your head.
Michael Pare is hot-blooded Joe and Mary Mara is his cool, by-the-book partner Nancy Kraus in the thriller Empire City. He's Type-A all the way: aggressive, action-oriented, amorous. She's the type you want on your side when you're in the Internal Affairs doghouse. Or staring at the business end of a killer's blade.
They want to learn who killed the fiance of glamourous socialite Kelly Carnahan (Robin Christopher) - an assigment that could bust them both to desk duty when Joe recklessly violates police ethics by falling for Kelly. Is Kelly just a woman in love? Or does her affair with Joe cover a hidden agenda? Joe knows the questions well. What he urgently needs are answers. |
