A Good Read

I picked this up at random, but found it very enjoyable. The story is a more or less predictable story of crooked public officials, crooked police officers, mob members, and one straight cop trying to cleanup the whole city on his own, but the writing it good and keeps you wanting more. It was difficult to put the book down, and during the day I was wanting to get back to it. After finishing it, I looked the author up to find his next book but he has not written many. Too bad.
