According
to the book description of Cop On The Run, it “is the story of a renegade cop, Peter Santini,
charged with murder, fleeing to avoid capture. He is pursued by his twin-sister, Betty, by order of her father, the family
Patriarch. Betty is the most decorated female detective on the force. The twins are the products of three generations of Hero
Cops. The flight and chase lead the twins through many thrilling episodes of adventure, danger and romance. When a tragic
accident during a heroic act paralyzes Peter, the media exposure enables Betty to catch up to her twin. Seeing his condition,
Betty refuses to arrest Peter, and returns home to marry her fiancée. At her wedding she reveals Peter's whereabouts
to her father, Frank, who takes up the chase. Frank spends months helping his son recuperate, and when he feels Peter is strong
enough, tries to take him into custody at gunpoint. A struggle ensues and a shot kills Peter's lover. In panic, Frank
flees and is captured on the Interstate. He suffers a heart attack when his captor turns out to be the secret Frank had been
hiding from his family for forty-four years.”
