Matthew Hope gets his ass kicked in a bar, defending/protecting his girlfriend, and after the hospital, she breaks up with him. Tough start to this book!
Then, the book slows waaaaay down, and I learn more about raising cattle than I ever wanted to. Waaaay more. Then it picks up again, and then it's over. The dialogue is good, especially the banter, but the main character, Hope, is pretty lame, and I didn't much care for anyone else, except maybe the cops. It was my first "Hope" book, and probably my last. I'll stick to the 87th Precinct, thanks. (
