Customer Reviews

been there done that

Justice is a well constructed police procedrual from someone who has been there done that. Dan Mahoney ranks up there with Michael Conneley and James Lee Burke. His story is to the point, not absorbed with filler, but moving the story along. It follows the muderous trail of a killer of drug dealers into a logial conclusion.

Just found this author

I love books that have the same characters whom I like enough to go back to the beginning and read them all. This is my first, and I will find all the others. Great read.

4 1/2 stars

See storyline above.A good police procedural. Dan Mahoney's story telling seems to be made for the big screen, but in his writing you get a much better idea of a character's true self.The story moves at a good pace, while the action and drama will keep you going to the very last page.Recommended.

Better and Better

Justice is the latest, and in my opinion the best of Mahoney's NYPD thrillers. More action this time, a bad guy that you end up rooting for, and two cops fighting against the system and their own department to stop him from killing again. Mahoney nails the details and as always has great "only in New York" characters who weave in and out of the story. Shootouts, chases through the city, a spy in the police department, and a final showdown: Somebody should make a movie of this one!

ANOTHER GREAT THRILLER FROM DAN MAHONEY

ONCE AGAIN DAN MAHONEY HAS WRITTEN A GREAT NYPD NOVEL. IF YOU HAVE READ HIS PAST BOOKS YOU WILL THROUGHLY ENJOY JUSTICE. DAN WRITES ABOUT WHAT HE KNOWS WHICH IS THE NYPD AND POLICE WORK. WHY HOLLYWOOD ISNT TURNING HIS BOOKS INTO MOVIES I DONT KNOW. KEEP WRITING DAN.
