I have read the first 5 Dresden Files books (please no spoilers beyond book 5). Big fan of the series so far. However I was listening to the second on audio book while I do a few things around the house and reminded how much I hate Murphy.
In the second book she accuses him of crimes and sucker punches and beats him in custody for no reason. Harry says she is kind and a good cop. These actions say otherwise. Why would Harry be friends with her after this? Just hate her.
What are other people’s thoughts? Please no spoilers after book 5.

She wasn’t my favorite for a while, but she grows as a character in the series, just bear with it.
1.) she grows as a character for the better
2.) I forget where it happens but Butcher was going through a divorce while writing his books and some of the… less pleasant opinions he had about his wife kind of seep into the pages through Murphy. He improves on it with time, mostly because it was probably subconscious until it was pointed out.
