I cannot turn down a crime story.
Zack is, least to say, a cop that doesn’t play by the rules. He parties hard in illegal clubs and may or may not have a drug problem. When young Asian women on his beat are getting brutually murdered, he will use all of his shifty back channels to find the perpetrators of these horirble crimes.
Zack is 464 pages long and took me 5 days to read.
I’m giving this story a 3.5 out of 5. I really enjoyed the plot and characters in this story. They seemed like real people with real problems and not the “hero cop” that can do no wrong.
