As a brutal killing rocks the city, Kate Murphy wonders if her first day on the police force will also be her last. For life is anything but easy in the male-dominated world of the Atlanta Police Department. Kate isn't the only woman on the force who is finding things tough.

But the move will backfire, putting them right at the heart of it. Cop…
