Stealing Time
Leslie Glass
With her mastery of police procedure and unflinching take
on race relations, Leslie Glass is one of today's most
original female suspense writers. April Woo's investigation
of a child's disappearance in New York's Chinatown takes a
nasty turn when suspicion falls on the wealthy parents. The
father is hostile, the mother is unconscious, the police
are without a lead, and all the pressure is on April. The
facts don't add up and April's only hope of cracking the
case is to find the child's real mother. Everyone involved
is clearly hiding something, but is bound to silence by
fear or guilt or both. With the reporters, her superior
officers, and her own mother pressuring her, April is stuck
in the middle of the kind of high-profile case most cops
despisethe kind of case perfect for cool-headed
Sergeant Woo.
