This tale of San Diego Harbor cops and a plot to "fix" the America's Cup race, is Wambaugh-lite, lacking the intense emotional wallop of his earlier works. Still a diverting read.

Although Wambaugh is one of my favorite authors, this one has not held my attention. No action to speak of and very slow reading. I find myself slowing wading towards the end of the book and often put it aside til later if I happen to come upon another book that does hold my interest.
