- <p> Before she was an undercover police officer, Kim
- Wozencraft, 36, thought "cops were the good guys." She found
- they can also become addicts because "dealers expect you to try
- what they're selling." In Rush, a gritty first novel due in
- April, she writes from experience: the cop-heroine becomes a
- junkie and lands in prison. "I drowned my better judgment in
- drug use," she says. When hit with methamphetamines, "you think
- you can walk through walls." Film rights have been sold for $1
- million. Call it a gold rush.
