4.0 out of 5 stars Can't tell where right ends and wrong begins., September 20, 2010
This review is from: Rush (Paperback)
So if you had a job in a liquor store and you spend all evening drinking the liquor how long do you think your job would last?

Now, you have a job as an undercover narcotics officer. Your job is to buy dope so as to set up the dealers for take downs. No dealer will sell to you unless you fix right there the first time. It's inevitable you or your partner/colleague are going to get hooked.

This is a good, well written novel. The main character is a young girl who joins the police force and ends up as an undercover "narc". Her partner, Jim, soon becomes her lover and the two of them move in together and do as much dope, cocaine, meth, qualuudes, crank, pcp etc etc as they buy. Their collective reasoning is that it goes with the job.

Problem is, undercover narcs, even though it's common knowledge they do, are NOT supposed to sample the contraband. When her partner gets sick (spun) Kristen approaches her chief. He now knows illegality is taking place but, on his quest for promotion, he's torn tween getting the "busts" and bringing in the sick guy.

From then on it's about departmental politics, and you have to ask yourself, where does the line get drawn between doing wrong to do what's right? Ultimately the many departments of law enforcement are tasked with stopping society implode on itself. But, that task in itself demands that the lines be blurred once you put the good guys in amongst the bad.

Great book which I recommend. Well done to Kim Wozencraft.
