... my next book, Nobody Walks by Dennis M. Walsh. Because it is a true crime story I
can hardly wait to read it.
In
2003, Christopher Walsh was found stuffed in a trash barrel in a storage locker
in Van Nuys, California. After the dilatory murder investigation took seven
months to file charges, and ten years to go to trial, Dennis Walsh knew it was
up to him to keep his little brother’s murder from becoming a cold case.
The
only son of a large Irish American family to stay on the straight and narrow,
Dennis found his family’s dubious background paired with his law degree placed
him in the unique position to finish the job the cops couldn’t. Fencing with
the police and the DA’s office, Dennis spent years slinking between his life as
a stand-up lawyer and hitting the streets to try to convince the dopers,
thieves, prostitutes, porn stars, and jail birds that populated Christopher’s
world to come forward and cooperate with the police. Yet he walked a fine line
with his harsh tactics; prosecutors continuously told him he was jeopardizing
not only the case, but his life.
