Chronicle During Books The Delta Star
A Wambaugh fiction book is like a fine wine, it just gets better with age. One time this was a relevant contemporary book but now it’s more like historical fiction. Either way it’s still an enjoyable read!Declare Books As The Delta Star

Colorful satisfying mysteryAt first the racist characters got in the way of my enjoyment of this well written novel, but I recognized their banter as in good fun for bonding between cops. I don't like drunks spouting racist viewpoints jokingly in real life, but it's a good way for the author to quickly introduce the characters. I like the use of colorful nick names and repeating distinguishing characteristics that help to keep everything clear. I live in Kansas City, but happened to be visiting
Meandering, less than a compelling plot. Overall characters development is disappointing.
Wrong on every level but wickedly funny. Full of boozed up cops you'd expect from a Wambaugh book, all with delightful names. Kept me guessing right to the end.
if you like Wambaugh style (from Choirboys on) this is your novel ! very good !
Gritty novel about Los Angeles cops who like to hang out at a bar after hours. A hooker is dead after being pushed off a building. A PI is dead, apparent heart attach. They were in on a scam to embezzle a scientist who like twosomes. Cops, Caltech, Nobel Prize, YIKES!
