Title: Read This Book
Review: My aunt gave me this book as a must read because I'm African-American and I'm an ex Army Officer. Having spent 30 years in the civilian side of federal law enforcement I read this with a critical eye. Shelby writes good stuff. I don't think anyone else could've sold me on the actions of the CID, they're more paper pushers than people who go on SWAT actions, but Shelby had his stuff together. I read the book in two days, which is extremely fast for me. Had to laugh at a couple of parts though. (1) You don't look down on the washington monuments on your way into Dulles Airport and there is no Radio Shack at the Independence Mall. As a matter of fact, there is no Independence Mall in Washington, DC. I think he may have been referring to an area called The Mall, which runs in between Constitution and Indendepdence. That's where all of the museums are located. Told you I read it with a critical eye. If you like thrillers and you don't get at this one, you need a check up from the neck up.
