Query: What a Bummer!

I have to disagree with almost all the previous reviews. This book is not worth anyone's time - it has no moments - and is flat out boring. Jack is one of the most irresponsible, self serving and clueless characters I've come across to say nothing of being stupid. I can't imagine how he survived as a policeman for all those years.The French female character is slightly more likable and believable, but then going for a loser like Jack drops her I.Q. considerably and ruins whatever empathy one might have for her. I stuck it out to p. 337, but had made up my mind if he did one more stupid thing (which was inevitable) I would toss it, and I did. I realized I didn't care how it ended, but I hope he got what he deserved. This is not my idea of a good police thriller or procedural. I guess I expect too much of my heros.
