Homicide, the celebrated true crime book from the creator of HBO's The Wire, is re-envisioned as a gritty, cinematic graphic novel duology. This thrilling second volume concludes the saga.A woman is stabbed and left to die in her bedroom. A taxi cab driver is killed for a handful of jewellry. A man is gunned down over a debt of £6. As the board fills with red ink, the pressure rises. All the while, detective Pellegrini is haunted by the murder of eleven-year-old Latonya Wallace, a case that is getting colder by the day. Originally published in 1991, Simon’s Homicide became the basis for the acclaimed television show Homicide: Life on the Streets and inspired HBO’s The Wire. Now, this true-crime classic is re-envisioned as a gritty two-part graphic novel series.
