<p>THE MULTI-AWARD WINNING INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER - AS READ ON BBC RADIO 4<br><br><b>Why would you kill your neighbour?</b><br><br>Based on the best part of a decade embedded with the homicide units of the LAPD, this groundbreaking work of reportage takes us onto the streets, inside the homes and into the lives of a community wracked by a homicide epidemic.<br><br>Through the gripping story of one particular murder ¿ of an eighteen-year-old boy named Bryant Tennelle, gunned down one evening in spring for no apparent reason ¿ and of its investigation by a brilliant, ferociously driven detective ¿ a blond, surfer-turned-cop named John Skaggs ¿ it reveals the true origins of such violence, explodes the myths surrounding policing and race and shows that the only way to reverse the cycle of violence is with justice.</p>
