Subjects: Police, Hazardous wastes, Fiction

Description: (from the back cover) Tough, sexy environmental cop Nell Salter is looking into a chemical spill that has set off a chain reaction of death in the barrios of Tijuana and across the border. She's also looking for a relationship that doesn't turn toxic. Young, fresh-faced navy detective Bobbie Ann Doggett is investigating the theft of two thousand pairs of navy flight-deck shoes -- and swooning over the Olivier of the San Diego P.D. Mix in an unpredictable speed-freak trucker and his sociopath boss, and the result is a toxic cocktail of drugs, corruption, sex and murder. A frolic, a joy, a hoot, a riot of a book." -- *The New York Times Book Review*
