As the man lays dying, Mulino pulls a lanyard from under the guy's shirt and discovers a detective's badge.Ī swarm of cops arrives and Mulino tells his story. The man raises a gun in his direction and Mulino fires a single shot, dropping the man in his tracks. He tracks down a man moving through the containers and orders him to freeze. After a few minutes, though, he discovers a body lying on the deck and suddenly realizes that he is not alone. When the Harbor Patrol delivers him to the vessel, Mulino climbs a long slippery ladder and makes his way up onto a deck that appears deserted. But once ordered to do so, he naturally agrees. He's not really the logical person to respond to such a call and can't imagine why he captain has insisted that he should go. He's called out in the middle of a hot night to investigate an alarm from a ship at anchor in the harbor. Mulino is fifty-three years old, a cop with a bad knee and a shadow that's dogged his career for years. He gets his chance with a case involving a veteran detective named Ralph Mulino. Mitchell is very anxious to get the job on a full-time basis and so it's important that he make a big score right out of the gate. In particular, it's the job of his office to root out and punish corrupt cops. Leonard Mitchell is the new acting director of New York City's Department to Investigate Misconduct and Corruption.
