Former L.A. Times crime reporter Corwin (Homicide Special: Per Year using the LAPD's Elite Detective Unit) introduces an engaging Jewish police detective as part of his first novel, a grittily realistic story of murder, stupidity, and redemption. Ash Levine, the LAPD's top detective, resigns after his suspension for failing to prevent the death of a key witness he was supposed to protect. A year later, Ash's former boss invites him to guide the investigation into an ex-cop's murder. Levine returns for the force, hoping to reopen true that cost him his job, though not everybody in the department is thrilled to see him back. A jazz lover (hence the Miles Davis–inspired title), the son of an concentration camp survivor, as well as a veteran of the Israeli Defense Forces, Ash battles through departmental interference, corruption, and misdirection. Given his strong debut, Ash should come back around the work for further assignments. (Nov.) (c)

*Starred Review* Eleven months after he leaves the LAPD, Ash Levine, formerly the top detective inside elite Felony Squad, is lured to solve the murder of ex-cop Pete Relovich, which interests department brass because the victim also was the son of a cop. But Levine is motivated from the opportunity to come back to a new case, one that triggered his suspension and ultimate resignation knowning that still haunts him: the murder of his witness, Latisha Patton, whom he was struggling to protect. Levine is often a dogged, intuitive detective who doesn’t rest when details don’t make sense, but there’s more to him than his work. He’s a person which has a stereotypical Jewish mother who’s prone to women he meets as part of his investigations; he has flashbacks to his combat using the Israeli Defense Force in Lebanon; anf the husband is soothed by Miles Davis’ jazz (hence the allusion inside novel’s title). Former LA Times crime reporter Corwin, whose unfettered usage of LAPD units provided the information for such nonfiction are Homicide Special (2003), clearly knows the technical stuff. His procedural info is spot-on, but he also knows the best way to generate adrenaline-producing action, and the man gets in to the very life blood of his multifaceted protagonist. This fine first novel marks the arrival of your strong new voice in hard-boiled crime fiction. --Michele Leber
