Customer Reviews

A solid five stars

As a voracious reader of police procedurals, I rate "Rainbow Drive" highly; among literally hundreds of books, it stands out as one of my favorites. Sprawling, complex, yet eminently readable. And I still recall Gallagher's partner's line: "Circles within circles." If you're a fan of the genre, don't pass this up. It may be "older," but hey--you can have it for a song. How can you lose?Avoid at all costs the movie adaptation, starring Peter Weller. Seriously.
