A nightmarish series of events sweeps LAPD’s Sergeant Shane Scully and his wife (and boss), Alexa, into the vortex of an enormous, jurisdictional
 firestorm. First, a sheriff’s deputy, a friend of Shane’s, is gunned down while serving a routine search warrant. His fellow deputies blame the 
incident on the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, whom they angrily accuse of failing to warn them that the suspect had a huge arsenal of 
illegal weapons in his house. Soon thereafter, a member of the ATF Situation Response Team is shot to death, followed by the sniper murder of a 
member of the Sheriff’s Special Enforcement Bureau. At the request of the Mayor, the LAPD—an uninvolved and unbiased agency—assigns Shane to 
investigate. He is given an impossible deadline to find a solution before these two elite and deadly SWAT Teams kill each other off amid a 
hurricane of horrible publicity. Stephen Cannell is one of television’s most prolific and recognized producers. His Shane Scully series has
 been gaining a growing audience since the publication of The Tin Collectors, and Vertical Coffin is his best outing yet.
