Book Reviews of Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets
Book Review: A year in the life of Baltimore's Homicide Squad
Summary: 5 Stars
Reads like a novel! The basis for the television show "Homicide:
Life on the Street", an excellent non-fiction book that reads
like a novel. BALTIMORE SUN reporter David Simon rode with
the Homicide cops for a year and profiled the gritty reality
of solving murders in a major urban center. One of the best
true crime books I've ever read!
