Remember that old tv show “Dragnet”, that choppy way Joe Friday used to talk in the intro? “This is the city: Los Angeles, California. It is a big city, with lots of people. Some of them are good. Some of them are up to no good. That's where I come in.” Well this book's writing is exactly like that.
