What if, under the PATRIOT Act, federal bureaucrats could take murder cases away from local cops--then bury those cases so they're never investigated again?
What if government agents could bug your home, your car, your place of business--your entire life--with nothing more than spoken permission from a secret panel of judges?

What if the Department of Homeland Security could pull police officers off the street and hold them in cells indefinitely as material witnesses--because they're working on "sensitive" investigations?

They can . . .

The PATRIOT Act and the Homeland Security Act give enormous power to our nation's top federal law enforcement officials. They operate under the presumption that these officials are honest, diligent, and fair.

But what if they're not?

In THE COLD HIT, Detective Shane Scully suspects that the regional boss of the Department of Homeland Security is thwarting a major murder investigation. But why?...]]> Wed, 23 Nov 2005 00:01:07 +0200 The Devil_s Workshop https://contemporary.library.land/stephen-j-cannell/144106-the_devil_s_workshop.html https://contemporary.library.land/stephen-j-cannell/144106-the_devil_s_workshop.html

Meet Chick Best—a middle-aged self-absorbed, disaffected, California dot.com millionaire. Other than his house and high-priced foreign cars, Chick’s most expensive possession is his trophy wife. Evelyn is good at spending Chick’s money, money that has pretty much run out. Another problem is his drug-addled sixteen-year-old daughter, Melissa. Though concerned about his life and family, Chick has resigned himself to a miserable state of acceptance. That is, until he, Evelyn, and Melissa take a Christmas vacation in Maui. With this, Chick’s life changes...Chick experiences unrequited love at first sight when he observes Paige Ellis emerging from the hotel swimming pool. His obsession, exceeded only by his need to possess her, isn’t diminished when he learns that she is happily married. Instead, he befriends Paige and her near-perfect husband, Chandler. A short time later, back from Hawaii, Chick’s obsession compels him to drive to Paige’s...]]> Wed, 23 Nov 2011 00:01:07 +0200 Vigilante https://contemporary.library.land/stephen-j-cannell/360263-vigilante.html https://contemporary.library.land/stephen-j-cannell/360263-vigilante.html

The bestselling novelist and award-winning Hollywood producer weaves a high-tension novel of suspense around a chilling conspiracy of corruption within the LAPD, reminiscent of the classic movie "Chinatown."

Inside the department, they're called Tin Collectors: Internal Affairs Agents, the police of the police. If they catch you breaking the rules, they'll come after your badge. If they want you badly enough, they'll collect more than just your tin.

LAPD Detective Shane Scully is startled awake in the middle of the night by a call from his ex-partner's wife, who is being beaten by her abusive husband. Racing to their house to stop the fight, Scully ends up killing his ex-partner, a cop who is beloved within the department. Suddenly, Scully finds himself an outcast, shunned by his fellow cops who intend to exact vengeance no matter what the cost. Internal Affairs zeroes in on the "renegade" cop with their sharpest young prosecutor, the ice queen Alexa...]]> Fri, 23 Nov 2001 03:45:48 +0200 Vertical Coffin s-4 https://contemporary.library.land/stephen-j-cannell/165623-vertical_coffin_s-4.html https://contemporary.library.land/stephen-j-cannell/165623-vertical_coffin_s-4.html
