Steve is my favorite character we need such people in this corrupt world to fight for those who don't have the voice to.

Which character caught your interest the most, and why?
In my honest opinion, Steve was by far the most outstanding character in this book. I think it’ll be hard for anyone to like any other character more than Steve. But I must also confess that I liked Roxy too. But only because she reminded me of an old friend of mine who passed away.

I think Steve is an interesting character because we can follow his development from boy to man. Also, he tries to make the difference, and this is great. However, I cannot truly sympathize with him or with others. I don't know why, maybe it depends on how the story is written.

Steve was my favorite character. I loved how determined he was to bring change to the system. Despite the ups and downs, he never gave up on his ultimate goal.

Even though I haven't yet read the book, from what I know, Roxy seems like a very interesting character. Sometimes the secondary characters have more texture and you sympathize more with them.

I think we're in the same boat. Steve was also my favorite character in this book. I loved his personality, righteousness, and his exemplary compassion.

The character I like the most is Steve. Steve is the protagonist of this play, what I like about him is his leadership qualities.

Believe it or not, I liked Officer Crowley. Not because he was such a great character. Because he reminded me of many of the men I knew as a kid growing up, those who knew right from wrong but didn't want to make waves, preferring to disappear into the sunset without any initiative or big dreams. I always felt sorry for those men and swore I'd never become one of them. My only issue is that he disappeared too soon in the narrative. It would have been good to see how he fared concerning his retirement and if he was implicated in any way - although doubtful - in the federal investigation.

My favourite character was Sergeant David Durk. He is the one from whom Steve got inspired to join the force and make a change. I feel without his high sense of morality Steve wouldn't have stood out.

Steve was my best character. He is genuine in what he wants to do. For instance despite being surrounded by a corrupt system in the police, he stays true to his beliefs

Roxy was my best character in this book. She potrayed the strength of woman.
