Praise for Powers of Arrest... In Talton's excellent second Cincinnati Casebook mystery...two mature, vulnerable people become real partners whose survival really matters. -Publishers Weekly starred review After spinal tumor surgery, Cincinnati Homi-cide Detective Will Borders is lucky to be alive and lucky to have a job as public information officer for the department. When a star cop is brutally murdered, the crime bears a chilling similarity to killings on a peaceful college campus, where his friend Cheryl Beth Wilson teaches nursing. The two young victims were her students. Most homicides are routine, but here there are easy suspects, and even Borders' stepson is under suspicion. So Borders again teams up with Cheryl Beth to pursue a sadistic predator before he kills someone else. Jon Talton is the author of nine vels and the former business editor of the Cincinnati Enquirer. Jon lives in Washington state, is an ecomics columnist for the Seattle Times, and runs the blog Rogue Columnist. www.jontalton.com
