An exciting, fast-paced story filled with deep, rich characters. The book leaves Hollywood stereotypes in the box telling a realistic story about a cop tasked with ferreting out corruption. You will not be disappointed!
Loved reading about local law enforcement in the beautiful county of Gilmer. Learned some things I didn't know about the corruption case I followed years ago.
The first in a series of what I trust will be more. Price paints a vivid picture of crime in the mountains of NE Georgia. It's a exciting look into law enforcement through the pen of one who knows.
Interesting book with real life background. Well written and well told. If you’re interested in some of the history of North Georgia, you should put this on your to read list.
