ABOUT THE BOOK:
Trouble awaits rookie LAPD Officer Ellie Rush as she patrols the mean streets of Los Angeles on her bicycle...
Bike cop Ellie Rush dreams of becoming a homicide detective, but it’s still a shock when the first dead body she encounters on the job is that of a former college classmate.
At the behest of her Aunt Cheryl, the highest-ranking Asian-American officer in the LAPD (a source of pride for Ellie’s grandmother, but annoyance to her mom), Ellie becomes tangled in the investigation of the coed’s murder—with equal parts help and hindrance from her nosy best friend, her over-involved ex-boyfriend, a smoldering detective, and seemingly everyone else in her extended family...only to uncover secrets that a killer may go to any lengths to ensure stay hidden.

A cop on a bike is new for me in a book, and you never read much about an officer in any mystery doing their patrol on a bike; I need to read this :)

Interesting having a cop on a bike for a cozy. Also when I read her first homicide victim is a former college classmate got me hooked.

A cop on a bike in L.A.? I guess there are a few places that could be true (other than beach cities). I've lived in the L.A. area for most of my life. I'd love to read a book about an area I know so well.
