This is classic Wambaugh! All the grit and glamor of the streets is depicted against a backdrop of people who are human beings first and then cops.
A satisfying follow-up to Hollywood Station, and a not too exaggerated send up of that most famously misrepresented area of Los Angeles.
Not quite as good as Hollywood station, quite a bit more serious, but
the usual great Wambaugh style and plot!
