After the world narrowly avoids World War III, F.B.I. agent Mark Tice turns to politics in his search for justice. Mark comes from a past that is gradually revealed in periodic visits to the catacombs of St. Jude's Cathedral. Politics, crime, terrorism, greed, corruption and their counterparts dominate the present as Mark travels a parallel journey in unexplained visions revealing similar circumstances in the fall of all the great Empires of old. Mark struggles with the problems of the present in fear that the evils of the past are following in the shadows, possibly in the form of those he considers friends. On his lonely journey Mark meets Jennifer Hewitt, who is the reincarnation of his love from a time and place whose existence is in question. Jennifer's family becomes the center of his life's quest. As political success grows an important question must be answered. The appearance of police brutality and corruption is the focus, but how legitimate are the complaints? Jennifer's brother Tony is a rookie police officer, who gives life to the world of law enforcement. Terrorism, political correctness, liberal forces and greedy businessmen jeopardize the stability of the country. A select, somewhat clandestine group, debate these problems on several visits to the Hewitt household. Suspicious deaths and disappearances of prominent people cause great concern throughout the country. Mark and those close to him fear a plot revealed on the grave of a police officer killed by terrorists has been put in motion. Mark needs to find a just society, while some of those close to him want a society of their own making. The consensus is the final result will be Street Justice. If justice and security are not found within the confines of the law, justice must be administered on the streets. Governments must be strong in order to keep justice on the side of right. When governments fail to protect the law-abiding, there is no law, no security and no justice. This is the story line, but the point I am trying to get across is that the failures of the past are becoming evident in the present and making the future predictable.

Young Dr. Paul Allan Kelly traveled many times to southern Texas on vacations, developing such a passion for the region and its people that he eventually moved to Treasure, Texas, to practice medicine. With his floppy straw hat, crazy bib overalls, and love for his Harley motorcycle, Kelly was a bit unorthodox as a small town's only doctor. What he lacked in appearance, he made up for in character. He championed the rights of the people in the small, farming community, and he was obsessed with a desire to change the oppressive slum conditions and poverty of the Mexican American people living here. He stressed the need for greater politically representations in their communities and the importance of voting and participating in the political programs. But some people in powerful positions in this county believed Kelly was a troublemaker. After only three years in practice, Kelly was shot and killed under suspicious circumstances by Deputy Sheriff Billy Joe Smith. Though justice was never achieved in the court system, some of those responsible for Kelly's death paid the price.

Violent crime in New York City had grown too much for the state’s criminal justice system to follow through with death penalties bogged down by the appeals process. Often, prisoners convicted of first-degree murder were given cushiony jobs while waiting for their cases to be heard. Lower-court judges were especially frustrated when they noted that several repeated offenders were “back on the street.” And it was primarily out of frustration that a secret organization was formed. The Concerned Citizens Group (CCG) was composed of twelve New Yorkers whose prime purpose was to decrease the percentage of violent crimes. And the method that the CCG chose caused it to be targeted by the NYPD, the FBI, and the mafia. Over just eighteen months, the organization publicly announced—and carried out—the execution of prisoners convicted of murder in the first degree. However, when a crime boss was also executed, a $2.5 million reward was offered for the identity of CCG members. Does the reward work, or does it solidify the membership even more?

Street Justice traces the stunning history of police brutality in New York City, and the antibrutality movements that sought to eradicate it, from just after the Civil War through the present. New York's experience with police brutality dates back to the founding of the force and has shown itself in various forms ever since: From late-nineteenth-century "clubbing"-the routine bludgeoning of citizens by patrolmen with nightsticks-to the emergence of the "third degree," made notorious by gangster movies, from the violent mass-action policing of political dissidents during periods of social unrest, such as the 1930s and 1960s, to the tumultuous days following September 11. Yet throughout this varied history, the victims of police violence have remained remarkably similar: they have been predominantly poor and working class, and more often than not they have been minorities. Johnson compellingly argues that the culture of policing will only be changed when enough sustained political pressure and farsighted thinking about law enforcement is brought to bear on the problem.
