Detectives Mac Taylor, Danny Messer, Sheldon Hawkes, and Don Flack are called in to investigate a double homicide at a medium-security facility on Staten Island. Racial tensions turned the prison into a pressure cooker that finally boiled over in an all-too-lethal fashion, leaving two inmates dead. One of the killings is an open-and-shut case, complete with eyewitnesses; but the other, the murder of a former cop, defies easy answers. Initial investigation of the crime scene points to one cause of death, but the CSI team's scientific methods uncover something completely different -- and wholly unexpected.... On the other edge of the city, Stella Bonasera and Lindsay Monroe look into the murder of a young woman who worked at a popular Italian bakery in the Bronx. They find the perfect suspect almost immediately: a frequent customer who spent a lot of time flirting with the victim and who previously had been arrested for a violent crime. Yet Stella can't help but think that their perfect suspect is just a little too perfect for such a messy murder.... Nothing is as it seems as New York City's dedicated crime scene investigators piece together the clues and examine the evidence to discover the true killers in their midst.… (more)

Fluff, just like the other CSI: NY tie-ins. I liked the case that Flack, Mac and Danny worked on - as well as the seemingly unintentional girls on one case, boys on the other. Felt at home with the one the girls were working on as I know many bakeries like that one. Made me hungry for a cannoli though.

Good light, fun summer reading. ( )

Dedication
To Phil Rizzuto, 1917-2007. His voice was an important part of my childhood, watching Yankee games on channel 11, and I still miss his "Holy Cow" cry from the broadcast booth. He would have loved the cannoli at Belluso's. Rest in peace, Scooter...

First words
Detective Don Flack stared at the lone pill that rattled around the bottom of the prescription bottle.
