Hollowpoint

There was a time when Assistant District Attorney Andrew Giobberti pursued his job with vigour and a certain glee - but now he mostly thinks about his next drink and the girl he can persuade to share it with him.

Then a case much like others lands on his desk: young girl, dead from a gunshot wound, crackhead mother, very guilty-looking boyfriend. Something in this ordinary if tawdry case uncovers a vast well of grief and rage in him, and in his urge to avenge a pointless death he sets himself on a dangerous path to either destruction or redemption.
