Cop of the Year by Kathryn Shay

There were just so many things that bugged me about this book. I found Cassie highly annoying and Mitch was sort of blah. But the big thing to me was how unrealistic the portrayal of gangs were. They played a major role in the plot and yet their depiction was like how a kid would describe them. Gangs are ruthless and brutal. They hold grudges; it's blood in, blood out. They don't just pull small pranks or make idle threats or let someone come and go as they please.
