Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Homicide , the celebrated true crime book from the creator of HBO's The Wire , is reenvisioned as a gritty, cinematic graphic novel duology. This thrilling second volume concludes the saga.
A woman is stabbed and left to die in her bedroom. A taxi cab driver is killed for a handful of jewelry. A man is gunned down over a debt of $8. As the board fills with red ink, the pressure rises. All the while, Detective Pellegrini is haunted by the murder of eleven-year-old Latonya Wallace, a case that is getting colder by the day.
Originally published in 1991, Simon's Homicide became the basis for the acclaimed television show Homicide: Life on the Streets and inspired HBO's The Wire . Now, this true-crime classic is reenvisioned as a gritty two-part graphic novel series.
