Paxton Arrington is an honest cop working to keep Seattle safe; "Boo" Radley is the head of an elite task force and on the take. When the lower-ranking officer takes on corruption, he knows he's going to rattle the table. Will the fall-out be worth stamping out the rot in the department?

I had a fairly good idea where the story was headed right from the beginning and was hoping for a surprise. No such luck. The story was too short for me to develop a relationship with the main character leading to an itchy "let's get this over" feeling.

This was a good mystery but nothing new or extraordinary. I was bored as nothing different but enjoyable.

"When I put on this uniform, I always uphold the law".

At around 100 pages, this book is a quick read. A determined cop and his FBI friend are determined to bring down a group of corrupt cops, even with their personal careers at risk.

Overall the book was well written. The suspense was built up for the first 10 chapters and then it quickly ended. I usually don’t say this, but the ending could have been better developed. The last chapter was short, sweet, and too the point.

Still a good read.
