Is was OK until...

...the author committed the unforgivable: she inserted her own political viewpoint into the story. The line was with regard to a conversation taking place between two detectives driving down a lonely road deep in farm country. When one detective asks the other "What grows here??!", the other replies "Republicans and unemployment". An insult to me, a Republican, and to the very farmers who provide this pompous, elitist author who no doubt enjoys the best those farmers produce. It was very offensive, and puts Slaughter firmly on my "will never read again" list.
