Synopsis
The dazzling seventh instalment in the acclaimed series. Sergeants George Sue',¬o and Ernie Bascom investigate a brutal rape in 1970's Korea., On a crowded train from Pusan to Seoul, the brutal rape of a young mother sparks rage on the powder-keg peninsula of Korea, pittingKoreans against Americansand the 8th Army brass against the truth. Eyewitness accounts indicate the culprit was most likely a U.S. serviceman, but by the time Sergeants George Sueno and Ernie Bascom, U.S. Army investigators, are called in, the rapist has disappeared and anti-American fervor in this proud Asian country is threatening to explode. George and Ernie search in vain for the culprit, all the while becoming entangled in the web of military apologists who deny that any Americans were involved, and the designs of a beautiful blonde musician who fronts an all-female country western band--a woman who is out to entertain the troops in more ways than one. Delay causes more tragedy--and this time murder--and sets off a frantic search for a killer that stretches from the sizzling hot Demilitarized Zone to the cold waters of the Yellow Sea and introduces George Sueno and Ernie Bascom to a ruthless Korean homicide investigator known to anyone foolish enough to cross him as Mr. Kill.", It is the early 1970s in Korea, and Sergeants George Sueno and Ernie Bascom, 8th Army Detectives, are faced with the brutal rape of a young mother on a crowded train from Pusan to Seoul. With the help of legendary Korean detective Mr. Kill, the detectives embark on what may be the most dangerous mission of their careers. The Sueno and Bascom Investigations have been praised for their intense pace and morally troubling plots. Readers will be gripped by the fast-paced and twisting storyline.
