Title: Great Plot; Poor Execution
Review: Ok - picture this: Reform minded big city police commissioner selects a trusted policy wonk to aid him in cleaning up the force. Wonk, the "Man With A Gun," dives in with both feet, and finds himself immersed in the jealousy, intrigue, and bureacracy that is a force filled with career officers. Wonk screws up by forgetting that he is not a cop, and it takes more than a badge and a gun to become one. Suspicious career officers don't help him, and set him up for failure instead. Add a streetwise police sargent as advisor, a hot and experienced mistress, and some political intrigue, and you've got yourself the makings of a great book. Someone besides Daly should have written it. I picked this up on the strength of the excellent movie Prince of the City (starring Treat Williams), which was based on a Daley novel. Well, one movie doesn't mean that the other book is so hot. Great plot and ideas - just embarrassingly stupid storytelling in places. Skip it.
