Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I was deceived (and now mystified) by the 5-star rating. This is an amateur effort, with a silly plot that you've read 100 times before. For those seeking a procedural drama, this one adds nothing to the genre. The characters are wooden, the writing is dull, and the plot is telegraphed from the beginning. Even the cover is misleading, showing a white politician, when the plot is supposedly about African-Americans, although the "street" dialog is embarrassingly off the mark. The thinly veiled "Christian-values" subtext is distracting, unpersuasive in the mouth of his unlikeable protagonist, and contributes nothing to the story, other than an explanation for why Mr. Swiger is bothering to pen this drek. Rarely do I toss a book, but this one is going straight to the shredder.
