This is a book about Craig, a cop trying to solve a case, and about his wife Leslie, a woman trying to save her marriage and her family. Summarized like that one might expect a piece of fluff, but this crime novel is anything but. The author (she has an MFA from Chapman) paints a very disturbing picture of the tangled webs of big-city gang crime, police procedure, and the dangers of misunderstanding and misplaced desire. An exhausting and satisfying book.
