Synopsis "Control"

Detective-Sergeant Kate Burnham isn't making any friends in the Washington, DC Police Department. That makes her the perfect scapegoat when a routine homicide investigation threatens to blow open a criminal conspiracy reaching to the upper echelons of the DC power elite. Either Kate makes it go away, or they make her go away. Cop or criminal, power is all about control, applied top-down from the penthouse elite to the hustlers on the street. But what happens when the street pushes back...? A political crime thriller from Andy Diggle, Angela Cruickshank, and Andrea Mutti! Reviews: "Inciting action... a nice set of breadcrumbs setting up the trail to follow." - Comic Spectrum "A solid crime mystery with a heart of darkness that is engaging and fast-paced." - Spartantown "An interesting villain, an intriguing murder mystery, and... great art." - We The Nerdy
