It took me a few pages to get into Wambaugh's style but I am glad I did. While the book feels a little dated it was still a fun read. Wambaugh has a knack for making me laugh out loud.

Mer underhållande än spännande. Rolig läsning är det dock. Andra halvan betydligt starkare än början.

If you love dogs, skip this one. The character of Philo Skinner made me sick and what he did to the dogs in his care made me even sicker.

story of a immigration task force established by the San Diego PD .
It is non-fiction, and an incredible story. And it so makes you want to solve the immigration problem.
It also gets into team relationships, and the role of politics in police tactical decisions.
