Poor, Poor, Ophelia
THE BLOCKBUSTER THRILLER THAT BECAME THE HIT TV SERIES "THE STREETS OF SAN FRANCISCO" It’s the turbulent 1970s, a time of social upheaval. The generation gap has never seemed so wide and perilous, especially for veteran Santa Monica homicide detective Al Krug and his new partner, university-educated ex-surfer Casey Kellog, the youngest detective on the force. A woman’s corpse is found floating in the bay with a law firm’s business card, sealed in plastic, strung around her neck. Krug and Kellog have to solve the bizarre and gruesome murder… if they don’t kill each other first. Be sure to catch the further adventures of Krug & Kellog in the new, contemporary novel, THE LAST GOOD PLACE by ex-cop Robin Burcell, which brings the characters to present-day San Francisco. “An expert thriller,” St. Louis Post-Dispatch “Weston writes smoothly and uses a good deal of sharp dialogue,” New York Times “Hard-hitting and eminently readable,” San Francisco Chronicle
