Richard Paul Russo created a gripping and compelling vision of near-future law enforcement in a corrupt and crime-ridden San Franciso. Now, collected together for the first time are "Destroying Angel", "Carlucci's Edge"(winner of the Philip K. Dick Award Special Citation), and "Carlucci's Heart".

"Multipy everything sad, sordid, and hopelessly romantic about the City by a factor of ten, and you've got Richard Paul Russo's San Francisco of the mid-twenty-first century. Serial murders, cyborgs, foxy ladies, wise street kids, and a tough ex-cop with a good heart and a bad karma -- Russo is mining a classic American vein." Ursula K. Le Guin
