2.0 out of 5 stars
Unoriginal Police/Detective Thriller, April 13, 2002
This review is from: Fatal Command (Mass Market Paperback)
My problem with this story (of experienced police officers setting up a new police department)was that the characters and the plot were hard to believe. Loner hero, two sidekicks...one is smooth-talking ladies man, the other a hulking brute..Of course the mayor is involved in chicanery. A nice guy cop goes undercover in the mayor's business and you know as soon as you hear that, that the nice guy will get "offed" and he does. This author has been a cop and he has a PhD...what he does NOT have is an imagination...

This Joseph D. McNamara might have a Ph.D. but he can't write or tell a story worth a read. I expected good things from this former harlem beat cop and police chief but got nothing. I hope to god policemen aren't as ignorant as he portrays them
