This was a can’t-put-down read, but I was fairly disappointed by it at the end. The writing was choppy throughout, and by the time the narrative reached its climax, the scenes went by quickly. I was interested in the Mickey and Truman’s  reflections on the role of police in handling addiction and interpersonal violence in poor communities, and her internal struggle with herself as a police officer. Ultimately, I wish Moore had gone further with these reflections instead of

having Mickey quit at the end, which felt like a cop-out.
