3.0
This is a police procedural through and through, and rather a departure from my usual fare. Written by a former cop who spent 20 years in the organized-crimes division, it follows two cops who haul up a barrel and find the body of a police officer in it—one who was corrupt, and just about to run from the mob. It was very gritty and realistic, and everything meshed together satisfying[ly] in the end. I liked the fact that the narrator (obviously based on the author) was constantly thinking about his wife, re-assessing his life, and so on.
