a Lt. Leroy Powder of Indianopolis Police Dept mystery...

Lt. Powder is in charge of the Missing Persons Bureau in this one. Dedicated, abrasive, insulting (Walter Matthau-like character) has met his match in this story. He tells wheelchair-bound Sergeant Carollee Fleetwood, wounded in the line of duty, to whom the department has given the choice of retirement or working with Powder, "You look tired. Why don't you take a load off your feet?" Carollee gives as good as she gets and the story is about their developing relationship and around the solving of half a dozen cases.
