The outsider

the long version

"Ash Rashid is a detective with the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department and one of the few Muslims on the force. Never one to play by the rules, Ash has decided he wants out of the police. So the last thing he needs is to get involved in a fresh murder investigation. But when Ash hears that the mother of his daughter's best friend has been killed in a brutal hit-and-run, he steps in to help. And when some of his colleagues prove reluctant to investigate, Ash swiftly gets caught up in an explosive mix of election-year politics, crime and police corruption."--Publisher description.
