Capital City is teeming with death. Under the neon glow downtown, a body turns up every single night.

On the second anniversary of his wife's unsolved murder, Detective Jack Rose is once again cast into the deep end of a grisly homicide investigation. But this isn't a shooting or poisoning or any of the other preferred ways to kill someone from a distance. This is a hard crime, the up-close kind, the kind that rarely shows its ugly face -- even on an island busting at the seams with 3 million people.

The victim was a resident of Capital Heights, a notorious deathtrap of a building with a reputation among parolees as a cheap place to live. They say you can even stay for free, if you're willing to do a few favors, no questions asked…

In a city monitored by countless surveillance cameras and remote-operated patrol cars, Jack thinks a cop should be able to catch a break. He's wrong. With no clues, no witnesses, and a growing list of suspects, he must rely on instinct to catch a killer before another victim is found on the rain-washed streets of Capital City.

Hard Crime blends the grim future of Blade Runner with the hard-boiled style of The Big Sleep to create a futuristic crime story that will keep you guessing until the very end.

***EXTENDED EDITION: Includes Dream Street, the sequel to Hard Crime.***
