What they must do is perilous they step far outside the law, battling a warped justice system and Bruno's former partner, with his own evil agenda.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"For those who crave fast-paced, noir-like thrillers, <b><i>The Disposables</i></b> is a novel that won't disappoint." -- <b><i>Foreword Reviews</i></b><br><br>"This novel gives off heat...there are a number of unique and startling plot twists. But what really recommends the book is the high-octane presentation...the occasional clunky sentence doesn't detract. Rather, they add somehow to the sense of urgency and authenticity, the feeling that this is the real deal, set down by somebody who was there and still hasn't gotten over it. The SWAT-like assault on the crime house is an impressive set piece." -- <b><i>Booklist</i></b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>During his career in law enforcement, <b>David Putnam </b>has done it all: worked in narcotics, violent crimes, criminal intelligence, hostage rescue, SWAT, and internal affairs, to name just a few.
