Summary: Entertaining Small Time Police Story With a Likable Lead
Review: K. C. Constantine develops the character of acting police chief Rugs Carlucci, into a likable guy operating in a small time depressed western Pennsylvania town. The author uses dialogue in a most effective and entertaining way. The police chief is a Viet Nam vet, a good civil servant, a good son, and good cop liked by most around him. Investigating the murder of a former home town sports hero, he gets to open up the decaying environment of this "has been" town near Pittsburgh, PA. What the reader gets is a entertaining picture of this town and its socio-economically depressed characters and politically corrupt small time government.

The story did leave me wanting more. I wanted to see the nice guy police chief further develop the love affair with his coworker's cousin.
