Expo City: A Police Story

 




In May, 1986, the world will converge on the formerly sleepy Pacific port of Vancouver, for a World's Fair. There, the lives of three cops and one criminal will collide, with irrevocable consequences:

BARRY OLDS is a cop's cop; a man of judgement and courage and a leader other cops aspire to be.

RICK GROHMANN is a wild man on the street; even wilder in his personal life. He's in a struggle with himself to see if he can achieve career success before he self-destructs. For him, one recently released drug dealer is the secret to redemption.

BOBBI SANGHERA is the first Indo-Canadian woman on the force. Struggling to prove herself, at work, and at home, she edges into reckless territory to fit in amongst her fellow cops.

BLOTTER BOORMAN is a career drug dealer approaching middle age. With the business opportunity of a lifetime approaching, there's only one way for him to make a fortune. And that's by taking it.

EXPO CITY is a portrait of Vancouver's mean streets, and the people who walked them.

A hard-edged period crime novel for fans of James Ellroy and Harlan Coben. Bikers, pushers, hookers, junkies, and cops, all moving to a New Wave beat. This is the Vancouver of back alleys and shooting galleries, not cruise ships and ski slopes.
