Rezension zu „Rizzo's War “
Praise for "Rizzo's War""Lou Manfredo gets it. As a depiction of the byzantine, politicized existence of a working American police department, "Rizzo's War" stands as a valuable primer. This is good police work as it actually occurs--full of flaw and compromise, absent the pristine science of television procedurals, and bearing only a vague resemblance to what any social or legal philosopher might define as justice. With all of that said, though, sometimes good police work is nearly enough."--David Simon, creator of "The Wire""Lou Manfredo's debut explores the gritty, unkind streets of Brooklyn. . . . Comparable to the late Ed McBain's brilliant 87th Precinct procedurals . . . Manfredo's novel resonates with authenticity."--Sun-Sentinel"Manfredo shows us the nitty-gritty of police work. . . . It's a realistic portrait . . . a solid debut."--The Washington Post"In this engrossing debut novel, Lou Manfredo gives us a modern-day police procedural that is equally concerned with insights into character as with apprehending criminals."--smartmoney.com
