Strip Search (2012)
“He did not like the day shift. Not for the same reason Max disliked it; his partner preferred the midnight-to-eight because it gave him the afternoon and evening with his family. He often got home in time to see the kids off to school and then woke up for supper with his family and a few hours together before it was their bedtime. But Wager liked the night shift because that was when most of the action took place. With sundown, the streets came alive, especially on the long summer days when the... light lingered until nine, and the cooling sidewalks sucked people out of their stuffy apartments and homes to small front porches or grimy steps, to tiny strips of lawn, to littered sidewalks and curbs where they stood and talked or gazed and were gazed at.
