Mean Business on North Ganson Street<\/a> by S. Craig Zahler (2014)<\/p>\n Hardcover: 304 pages First sentence…<\/p>\n The dead pigeon flew through the night, slapped Doggie in the face, and bounced to the ground, where its cold talons clicked across the pavement as it rolled east.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n The Overview: Beware of Spoilers\u2026<\/p>\n Detective Jules Bettinger, after mishandling a case is given the choice: resign, be fired or accept a transfer to one of the most understaffed and highest crime ridden cities in the country. Reluctantly Bettinger accepts that transfer and moves his wife and child to his new job.<\/p>\n Once there Bettinger finds things worse than he could imagine. There’s no trust between Bettinger and his new partner who may be involved in illegal activities with other cops. When Bettinger uncovers a conspiracy to kill police officers, he and his family become targets leading to a bloody ending.<\/p>\n Mean Business on North Ganson Street<\/a> isn’t for the faint hearted. The violence is brutal, and often hard to stomach. Sometimes Zahler seemed to be showing how smart he was with his word choices, but getting into the book I began to think that instead it was to highlight what a fish out of water Bettinger was. Mean Business on North Ganson Street<\/a> wont’ be everyone’s cup o’ joe, but I liked it a lot.<\/p>\n Rating:<\/strong> Mean Business on North Ganson Street by S.
