To Kill A Cop

New York in the seventies. Two cops are assassinated by a militant group promising future killings. A beleaguered chief of detective, after a lifetime of cleaning up death scenes, must clean up this one even while staving off, if he can, corruption charges against himself launched by his headquarters peers. A male-female radio car team, one of the department’s first, is targeted. They had started off hating each other, but now must struggle to keep their relationship platonic. Of To Kill A Cop the Philadelphia Bulletin writes: “Distinguished by far more than its relentless authenticity…A tough, raw, breathlessly exciting story told by a first class story teller…Daley also gives us an insider’s look at two present day phenomena: the urban guerilla who, turned off by modern society murders at random; a police bureaucracy capable both of extraordinary valor and sickening corruption.”
