Follows the careers and personal lives of the Gotham City police department, profiling detectives and how they handle corruption, supervillains, and the vigilante work of the Batman"It's not easy being a cop in Gotham City. Not only must you deal with the violence and corruption of the world's most notoriously crime-infested city catering to some of the most insane and homicidal criminals, but you also have to deal with a vigilante who's hellbent on playing by his own rules."--P. [4] of cover"There are three stories contained in this great collection. The first has the writers co-writing a plot introducing us to the night and day shifts of GCPD and the Major Crimes Unit as they take on Mr. Freeze. [In the second,] Brubaker then tackles the mystery of a kidnapping and murder. With plenty of plots and twists to keep an mystery fan jumping for more. [In the third,] Rucka takes a more personal look at one of Gotham's Finest, Renee Montoya, as she deals with personal issues and the revenge of a twisted perp she arrested who was released on a technicality."--Amazon
