Just a joy. Rereading it today still felt very current, and as always I found some proper laugh out loud moments.

"Odd thing, ain't it... you meet people one at a time, they seem decent, they got brains that work, and then they get together and you hear the voice of the people. And it snarls.”

“Sergeant Colon had had a broad education. He’d been to the School of My Dad Always Said, the College of It Stands to Reason, and was now a postgraduate student at the University of What Some Bloke In the Pub Told Me.”

“Colon looked awkward, as if the bunched underwear of the past was tangling itself in the crotch of recollection.”
