'The Late Show introduces a terrific female character: Detective Renee Ball ard . this new star is a beauty . Ballard is complicated and driven eno ugh to sustain the series Connelly doubtless has in mind for her. Connelly writes passionately about, and captures especially well here, the detective 's high when the pieces of a puzzle fall into place.' - Janet Maslin, New Y ork Times Los Angeles can be a dangerous city - never more so than in the dead of nig ht. Renee Ballard works the night shift at the LAPD in Hollywood, beginning man y investigations but finishing none as each morning she turns her cases ove r to day shift detectives. A once up-and-coming detective, she's been given this beat as punishment after filing a sexual harassment complaint against a supervisor. But one night she catches two cases she doesn't want to part with: the brut al beating of a prostitute left for dead in a parking lot and the killing o f a young woman in a nightclub shooting. Ballard is determined not to give up at dawn. Against orders and her own partner's wishes, she works both cas es by day while maintaining her shift by night. As the cases entwine, they pull her closer to her own demons and the reason she won't give up her job - no matter what the department throws at her.
