Balls of Ice

Start to finish, this book goes through drugs and money and jewels and fast paced all the way; it includes a dash of international intrigue for those who like ocean spanning crime.

Murder of a whole family: mother, father, and two children is the kick off to a very bad day for a police detective who is certain it isn't drugs. His lieutenant is certain it's drugs and wants to dump this on the Narcotic division. It says a lot about how staff builds an ivory tower and then the damn thing falls on them in the end. Make yourself comfortable as you will not likely set this book down until you are done reading it. Fun stuff for the reader who likes to get the bad guy quickly, surely, and sends him off for his just rewards. And that does happen! Just think Curva Peligroso. The San Diego Police Depart-ment has great cops. None of them are actually involved in anything like this, nor were they ever, but if they had been, a team led by people such as Greg Nojima, Chief of Dectives Homicide, would surely find them. These guys are good!
