Divisional Chief Roberts informs Detective Sergeant Michael D'laska that he is to investigate the shooting of a Mafia henchman by an off-duty police officer. D'laska initiates the inquiry by speaking with Captain Connors, the first high-ranking officer at the scene. D'laska gets his first taste of the deep animosity and prejudices the established Irish guard have against the Italians in the police force.
Teaser:
Chief Roberts and Captain Connors believe Officer Calabrese is guilty, while Detective Olearczyk says Calabrese should be congratulated for killing a thug like Nickie Piantini. And already, questions seemingly unrelated to the shooting surface. Why was Calabrese in Manhattan at that exact day and time? Detective D'laska needs to have a conversation with Officer Calabrese, which will happen next time.
