Two Dead by Van Jensen

4.0

Beautifully inked, dark and fast-paced, the story of a small town in the throes of organized crime and racial tension focuses on two cops: the older cop, Bailey, is hearing voices and is on a mission to eradicate the criminal elements, though he himself is a criminal in the way he abuses his power, and a younger, new cop, Kemp, who's suffering PTSD and is hired by the mayor to try to oust Bailey. Big Mike, the criminal boss in town, leaves a trail of bodies, employs the brother of the head of the black police (who eventually recruits all the black cops who are sick of the disrespect from the whites to work under him for Big Mike from under his brother...), and looks to collect canine teeth of his trophy jar. With corruption running deep, the good cops play as dirty as the bad, and though Kemp tries to keep above it all, he's not spared in the end. Recommended for those who like card games, car chases and changing diapers.
