Nice insights, deadly thoughts

Thomas Cook has crafted a winner. He gets into the mind of a drunk, a dismal, dank and dark man, a failing police detective who is not even sure that he is driven, much less why. Investigating the death of a rich, beautiful 18 yr old, his detective brings together the arts, violence and the widely different lives of the rich, the poor and those few in between. Cook manages to paint a tapestry which keeps your attention riveted.
