  <default-description>&lt;P&gt;A man walks into a trendy Los Angeles restaurant -- a disgruntled ex-employee with an automatic weapon -- and seconds later, thirteen people are dead and thirty-two more have been wounded. It is a heinous act of mass slaughter that haunts Homicide Detective Peter Decker.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;But, though eyewitnesses saw only the lone gunman -- who apparently took his own life after his bloody work was done -- evidence suggests more than one weapon was fired. It is a disturbing inconsistency that sends Decker racing headlong into a sordid, labyrinthine world of Southern California money and power, on an investigation that threatens to destroy his reputation and his career.&lt;/P&gt;</default-description>

    <body><![CDATA[The first two chapters are chock full of pulp fiction cliches and bizarre turns of phrases.  It was the fact that it was a &quot;New York Times Bestseller&quot; that kept me reading though.  I am glad I did.
