Eric Collins has written a great new police story, "The Testing Point", that points a finger at police corruption. The only problem is that Ben and Dina, police partners, don't know who the king pin is in the corruption and they must find it out because now their lives are in danger for digging for information. This is a new twist on crime novel but a very interesting one at that. The more Ben and Dina get involved, the more dangerous it becomes for them. Also in danger is Andy, the police officer that Ben and Dina feel is being set up on a murder charge even though the evidence points that he did it.

Here is a great new cop mystery that you will really enjoy. The pace is fast and the characters are quite interesting. The plot is one that you will have a hard time figuring out but that makes it more interesting! Ben is the main character and his partner is Dina who came from Israel. They must solve why Andy, another police officer, is being framed for a murder and is arrested for the crime. Who is responsible for the frame up? Why are Ben and Dina under attack? They don't know who is after them and why. There is a lot of action in this book, "The Testing Point", by Eric Collins. I am sure that if you enjoy good police and crime novels you will definitely like this one.

When rookie police officer Ben Grasso gets the call, he has no idea that the felon he is supposed to be transporting is actually fellow officer and former classmate Andy McGill. McGill is to be charged for the motel-room murder of a prostitute. Although everyone believes the case to be open-and-shut, Ben knows McGill well and is having trouble believing the official story. Ben is assigned a new partner, Officer Dina Greenbaum, another rookie but with some pretty heavy baggage of her own. After learning the facts of the McGill case, and the inconsistencies, she joins Ben's unsanctioned investigation. Once they get involved, they find they must fight organized crime and police corruption, and quickly find that they can't tell friend from foe and may have started something they can't finish. With contract killers out to get them, in the end they find that in many instances things are not always as they appear, if they live long enough to see it through.

I found "The Testing Point" to be a well-written police mystery. The two main characters, Ben and Dina, are well-thought-out and their interaction as partners is well done. I found the dialog suitable to the characters and situations and the plot to be strong. The amount of strong language and violence found in the book is not excessive. However, I did find one small thing off-putting. The scenes concerning the baseball games were a little longer than necessary. While it was good to show aspects of life other than the police department, I felt they weren’t really necessary and seemed like fillers and actually they took away from the story somewhat. But, overall, it is a very good story.
