2. Sarah Howard was trying her best to break
the “sex barrier” and become a member
of the NYPD.
Talented and determined, she looks to have
a good chance of doing so, but leaves the
force to become a private investigator…
3. Stevie Taggert came into Dr. Kreizler’s
care after he successfully defended
himself from sexual assault by a guard at
Randall’s Island…
4. The strength, determination, and loyalty of
Mr. Cyrus Montrose served the team well.
The two team members who participated in
the final capture of the bad guy would
probably not have survived the experience
without his able assistance.
Pretty tough piano player…
5. Demetrio and the guys
fought like wild men,
and partied like there
was no tomorrow…
Eventually, as often
happens in war, there
wasn’t.
But until then, there
were Federales to kill,
white horses to ride,
and women to…
fight with?
6. An awful lot of the time, it seemed as though the guys
didn’t really know what they were fighting for…
Yet they fought on anyway, devoted to their uncertain cause.
7. The ending of the novel was
stunning. The image of
Demetrio aiming his rifle
into eternity is not one I
will soon forget.
Vaya con Dios,
Demetrio…
