This one was just OK for me. I got this as a freebie, and I guess it's been around for a while, because this is set in the 90s -- no cell phones, no internet. Kinda weird, lol. There were also a lot of references to Vietnam, which threw me a bit because I didn't realize Mitch was so old. Not that he was "old" old, but I think in his 40s, and I originally presumed he was early 30s. Anyway, the story is sort of about Cassie, who teaches at-risk kids, learning to trust law enforcement again and Mitch learning to deal with his demons from war. There's gang activity and former gang members trying to do the right thing. Interesting story, but I found myself bored a bit of the time. This is the first in a series, but I'm not interested enough to continue with it.
