C.R.O.P.: Covert Rural Observation Posts are places where men like Danny 'Badger' Baxter hide for endless, motionless hours, secretly recording criminal or terrorist activity.

Karen,

I've reviewed books in the past.  It's a challenge because you want to respect the effort the writer put into the book.  You also have to be sensitive that what you dislike may say more about you than the novel.  I think that's why I thought you did such a nice job with this review.  It seemed very judicious.

Best to you,

Jackson
