Good book, poor editing

I enjoyed listening to this book. After living in the Green Bay Area for years, I’m familiar with the area, and even remembered some of the incidents. Susan’s stories were very interesting and I appreciated a woman’s perspective of police work.
The downside of this audiobook was the poor editing. There were multiple chapters that were forgotten by the editor and were filled with coughs, sneezes, repeated sentences, etc. It’s not fair to the author to have released this audiobook in an unfinished condition.
