Reinforced and repaired closed tear & light chipping.Kirkus Review: The heroine sports a police uniform instead of a lawyer's suit, but everything else is mayhem as usual in Rosenberg's latest dip into female legal paranoia (Trial by Fire, 1996; California Angel, 1995, etc.). Oak Grove is nothing like neighboring L.A., if only because the police department is squeaky clean. But Rachel Simmons, who all but saw fellow officer Jimmy Townsend plant a handgun on a drunk driver with bad attitude, wonders if the reason for the department's sterling reputation is that everybody's covering for everybody else. Well, Rachel, who's idolized cops ever since one of them rescued her from a molester 25 years ago, isn't one to cover up anything. When a beach party ends with preening Officer Grant Cummings groping her, she threatens to file a complaint against him. And when a teen gang fight ends in a fatal shooting Cummings could have prevented, she won't keep quiet, even though all the other officers present back up Cummings, leaving her the only one holding hands (and more) with prosecutor Michael Atwater. Retaliation follows when a routine late-night call turns into a fatal encounter, Rachel's backup units innocently fail to respond, and she swears out complaints against virtually the entire squad, who naturally close ranks even more tightly. The territory is familiar enough; Rosenberg's contribution is to present Rachel's adversary not as a faceless bureaucracy but as an extended family, puzzled and hurt by her defection, even as they're pushing her toward a financial disaster that would break up her family (her bright, willful daughter Tracy's already plotting just how big a price she'll have to pay to bail mom out), drive her from her home and job, and destroy her life. Written without the slightest subtlety or complexity, but at a barn-burning pace that practically guarantees big sales for an audience whose own problems will be dwarfed by Rachel's.

This is a full dress, fully descriptive bibliography in the Soho and Pittsburgh style.

Illustrated. Four appendices. Two indexes. Bound in the original gilt-stamped maroon cloth. From the pristine dust jacket: "This bibliography of Sir Walter Scott describes not only the variants in his novels and verse, as published in English during his lifetime, but extends to his lesser known activities as advocate and sheriff, antiquarian, biographer, editor, historian, reviewer, casual commentator from his Abbotsford estate, and constant contributor to the work of his friends and associates. Primarily from these other concerns, some 115 issues have been identified as probable or certain instances of Scott's involvement, acknowledged or concealed, and attention occasionally directed to other possibilities as yet unrecognised. Quite unknown, and here documented at length, beginning with KENILWORTH, are frequent extracts from the novels in a Philadelphia journal, some of them far in advance of publication in Edinburgh. Apart from what is essentially Scott, this bibliography further discloses his often anonymous reappearance in 164 anthologies and again, now indirectly, in countless printings deriving from his original work - in shabby chapbooks, grand suites of illustrations, operas, plays, and endless reams of sheet music. Thus any one Scott performance may have numerous consequences, totaling 60 or more entries cited here for a popular novel (WAVERLEY, ROB ROY, IVANHOE, THE PIRATE); at least 100 or so for several of the poetic romances; 199 entries for MARMION, and a rather astonishing count of 435 for THE LADY OF THE LAKE. From this larger perspective it may be argued that Scott's influence, immediate and remote, exceeded that of all other writers in the Romantic Era." Oversize Hardcover.
