Review:
"As a police officer, writer, and editor...Cortez provides a unique perspective on the front lines of law enforcement in Houston. In this, her second book of poetry, Cortez employs a frank language in sharp lyrics charged with weary passion...Cortez enlives her lines with a deft blend of rhythm and police shorthand...[she] brandishes a mean humor..."--Diego Baez, Booklist
