This was my first read from Brandt Dodson, but I was highly impressed by how this author handled a novel about gangs, warlords, and the tremendous violence that is often associated with the underworld---all without once taking the Lord's name in vain or using other profanity. Dodson used his own Christian beliefs to demonstrate how an undercover policeman made choices between succumbing to temptation or living up to the life he has always proclaimed.

Interesting, suspenseful, this book was a good read. But, like other Dodson books I've read, there is very much "gray area" here. Are the bad guys really bad? Are the good guys really good? What is bad and good? Sometimes I just walk away a little unsure.
