The last two years have been tumultuous ones for the Spokane Police Department. On the surface, the agency has suffered from scandal and police officer deaths. Underneath, a secret and deadly game of cat and mouse has played out.

Now the Department of Justice has sent investigators to determine if federal intervention is needed. Their presence disrupts everyone’s agenda and threatens to expose dark secrets. Goals shift from winning situations to simply surviving.

Not everyone will.

In this tense and explosive final installment of the Tyler Garrett saga, everyone’s true nature is laid bare. Garrett scrambles to maintain what he has built. Chief Baumgartner tries to protect his department. Captain Farrell’s plans crumble around him, and Officer Ray Zielinski’s career is at risk. Meanwhile, DOJ supervisor Édelie Durand diligently follows the facts where they lead. And through it all, the unflappable Detective Clint keeps his eyes firmly on the prize—Officer Tyler Garrett.

Praise for CODE FOUR:

Code Four is a tightly written procedural laying bare the infectious reach of corruption when officers believe the ends justify the means. Loaded with authentic detail, Frank Zafiro and Colin Conway deliver a thrilling, and heart-pounding conclusion to the Charlie-316 series. Fans of Connelly, Slaughter, and Coffin won’t want to miss this one.” —James L’Etoile, critically acclaimed author of At What Cost and Bury the Past

“Top-notch crime fiction. Conway and Zafiro have penned a realistic tale of murder, corruption, politics, and greed. But at its heart Code Four is a personal and brutally honest look at the men and women of law enforcement. Those who walk a razor edge between right and wrong and risk everything for justice.” —Bruce Robert Coffin, award-winning author of the Detective Byron mysteries

“The real deal. Emphasis on real.” —Colin Campbell, author of the Jim Grant thrillers

Code Four is a must-read in the canon of modern police procedurals. From personal vendettas to consent decrees, Conway and Zafiro don’t shy from the inherent paradox to police work—that justice isn’t so cut and dry as we’d like to believe. We humans may be the only species that writes and enforces laws, but we’re not immune to savagery or misjudgment or corruption. Code Four is an authentic look at people who are cops...not cops masquerading as people.” —Matt Phillips, author of Countdown and Accidental Outlaws
