This box set contains River City Books #7, #8, and #9.
(#7) Dirty Little Town
set in 2003-04
Times are tough for the River City Police Department. The city budget is collapsing, forcing an already understaffed department to contemplate laying off cops. The community is upset over the handling of recent events, and their anger is impacting the agency from the ground up. Negotiations with the police union are somehow both heated and stagnant at the same time. To "fix" the problem, the mayor appoints a new chief, but the cure may be worse than the disease.
Worse yet, a killer is stalking the streets of River City, targeting vulnerable women. Rookie detective Katie MacLeod is assigned to assist in the effort to stop him but the case is stymied.
Somehow, the men and women of RCPD have to put aside all of the distractions and focus on their jobs – to serve and to protect.
