Sierra Bravo — Les Roberts

Sierra Bravo is a brand-new Chief of Police in an upscale California beach town. The cops she works with adore her, but some of the rich and powerful have little use for her. A strange event-an eleven-year-old girl is brought into a men's washroom in a crowded movie theater-grabs her attention and sends her off into an investigation that turns into a fight against children being turned into sexual victims-for profit. A new romance with a school's vice principal runs into trouble, too, uncovering her own difficult childhood. Don't be surprised-female police chiefs are just as tough as their male counterparts.
