In this gripping exposé, Carsten Stroud takes readers into the life of a cop — we're with him during the chase, at the autopsy table, the visit to the victim's mother. We're in his head, sharing his dreams and his nightmares.
As Stroud follows Detective Kennedy through a week of investigations — the stabbing of an out-of-town college student, a brutal rape-murder — he explores the psychic landscape of police work: the low morale, the compulsive commitment to the job, the strange intimacy that binds cop and criminal.
Fast, gritty, suspenseful, Close Pursuit delivers all the drama of the best cop fiction — plus the power of a true story told in a unique and explosive style.

a homicide detective. — New York Times Book Review
For a close and compassionate look at a unique police department in a unique city, Close Pursuit wins top marks This book is surely required reading. — Hamilton Spectator
