The city in these pages is imaginary. The people, the places are all
fictitious. Only the police routine is based on established
investigatory technique.

The detectives hadn't even known the two men were acquainted. One of
the men was in the holding cell because he'd inconsiderately shot a
little Korean grocer who'd resisted his attempts to empty the store's
cash register. The other one was just being led into the cell. He'd
been caught running from the scene of a liquor store holdup on Culver
and Twelfth.
