Madden just wanted to be safe and away from the Dastrels, so he did everything he could to do that, even if that means that he has to kill a cop named Gabe. But then, he gets to Gabe's house, and it turns out that Gabe is exactly what Madden wants. Except, Gabe isn't quite sure what he should be doing in this situation.

I think that Gabe really needed to get out of his own way much sooner than he did. He was hurting himself with that, but he also made Madden really unsure and made it hard for him to feel safe and make decisions that could help him.

Overall, I really liked the story though. ( )
