The reader's accent was delightful and sometimes the only thing that kept me going through the graphic parts of this story. I do fine with the clinical descriptions in Cornwell's and Reich's books, but this book's details about cocaine abuse and its consequences, the torture of women, and police corruption were a bit much. (Maybe because they were about live people!) It was a compelling story with a likable heroine, but I don't think I'll be seeking out the other books in the series.
