The Onion Field by Joseph Wambaugh

"A complex story of tragic proportions . . . more ambitious than In Cold Blood and equally compelling!"--The New York Times
"Once the action begins it is difficult to put the book down. . . . Wambaugh's compelling account of this true story is destined for the bestseller lists."--Library Journal
