Customer Reviews

For beginners and die-hard fans

This book is a good introduction to the series if you missed the previous seasons. It contains episode breakdowns plus indepth characters' profiles.

As seen on TV

Little new is brought to the table regarding the Strike Team and their co-workers but I still enjoyed the book none-the-less.

Meet the boys from the strike team

Can get enough Mackey? Then I suggest you pick this book up, it is a who's-who of Shawn Ryan's groundbreaking cop series. Also contains an episode guide for seasons 1 and 2.
