This book starts well with Juno picking up his week's payoffs. I am enjoying the book, but wish it was paperback so that it would be so much more portable. This one I will have to read at home since there is no way it will fit in my lunch pail.

I still cannot see how brandy, no matter how expensive, would be enough to start a colony 14-light years away. Other than nitpicking holes in the story, the premise is good and the story is well-written. Interesting characters, good building of empathy with the reader even if the protagonist is a dirty cop. Good description of the planet, which reminds me of modern-day Tijuana, except with lizard fights not chickens.

I like police procedurals, especially those that mix SciFi in as well. I have not settled into this story yet - too many WTF moments right now. For a setting that reminds me of Tijuana in space, why would a wealthy, very beautiful woman join the police force? If Lagarto is such a nasty back water planet, why would the wealthy stay if they could get to a better place? I will keep reading hoping this story gets better.
