Overview

Based on the true story of the murder of a revered Detective Sergeant in the Robbery & Homicide Division of the Indianapolis Police Department, THE EXECUTION OF JUSTICE is not an ordinary Detective Novel. In this book, the Author has made every attempt to present the reader with an intimate portrait of the dedicated police officers and detectives who make tremendous personal sacrifices to track down and capture the most violent of criminals to protect the law abiding citizens of the communities they serve. Mike Walsh is promoted from Patrol Officer to Detective in the elite Robbery & Homicide Division of the Indianapolis Police Department. He had been hand-picked by his original Field Training Officer, Detective Sergeant Jack Lovell. Mike's wife of six years, Joanne was excited by the increase in pay and the fact he would have "normal hours". Walsh soon learns he's good at Detective work, and under Jack Lovell's guidance, the team solves several armed robberies and a couple of homicide cases. In February, he & Lovell are assigned a case of what appears to be a gang of spree robbers. With each robbery, the gang becomes more violent. Soon, the gang commit the ultimate crime in the killing of a Brinks Armored Truck Guard. By December, Lovell & Walsh have identified nineteen men and women in the gang. The leaders are three brothers with long criminal records and past violence. Tragedy strikes the team two weeks before Christmas. Walsh's life is turned upside-down. Will he survive?
