This is a good book. It reminds me a bit of the HBO show "the Wire" ... I think the author was a contributing writer on that show.. it's realistic sounding the dialogue is sharp and witty. The characters are truly human with human failings and human triumphs. I read it really quickly and enjoyed it immensely!

When I first starting reading this book, I thought - oh, no . . . too many characters and scenarios in the first 40 pages. But between pages 50 and 75 things started to smooth out and I wound up liking this book a lot. I'm glad I stuck with it. I really got into the characters a lot more than I thought I would. Based on this book, I would pick up another title by this author.
