Worth couldn't get over the looks people gave him.

Comments:

Matt Worth was busted down to working security detail at a grocery store after hitting a superior officer. When his co-worker Gwen comes to him for help, he obliges. But he may have gotten in over his head.

I like Doolittle's work. This book was kind of reminiscent of something by Elmore Leonard, dark and gritty with some humor thrown in. Worth's character made me laugh several times...out loud. I'll be reading more by this guy.
