Compton's Guide to Suicide

"If you want to meet God, do it on your own time and not on my lunch hour..." is the mantra of Brassfield, a veteran cop, who along with his enigmatic partner, slog their way through the dead and the dying in their own struggle with the meaning of life. Brassfield and his rookie partner Compton are just trying to make it through the next shift without getting blood on their uniform. But that is what they want you to think. With blunt cynicism and tactless humor they examine the dead and the dying giving a guided tour in the dark world of suicide. But reality is more murderous than they know. A trap has been set, and they find that dying is the only mystery left for them to uncover.
