The story was interesting but the way the book was written was boring and confusing. he used the phrase "well, hell...." 3 times on the same page. Maybe if it was organized better....I watched the Documentary after and enjoyed that way better than the book. The Documentary is called The Seven Five.

The case and story were interesting. It's about one internal affairs cop trying to shut down a corrupt drug dealing cop, but the rest of the New York police leadership, preffered to ignore the problem. The writing was great, but the organizational structure was fairly poor.
