Query: One of the worst NY fictions around

This book was a huge dissapointment. I'm a big fan of NY crimefiction & political thrillers and was so excited when this cameout that I rushed out to but it. MISTAKE! It wasn't very well written, the dialogue was painfully amature and the suspense just wasn't there. And by the way, having read the author's bio, he thinks a little too highly of himself in his pseudo-autobiographical fantasy portrayal of himself as the lead character, not to mention that a number of other characters are thinly veiled screeds on real officials in NY city government.Stick to Tom Wolfe or the Waterworks!
