The fast-paced fifth in Martin Limón's series featuring Sergeants Sueño and Bascom is set on military bases and nearby "villes" in South Korea. Our heroes manage to down vast quantities of the local OB beer in their investigative efforts to solve the mysteries of a missing soldier, a dead soldier, and a local schoolgirl who's been run down by a military truck, among other things. Limón spent 10 years in the U.S. Army in Korea and it shows in his knowledge of the military scene and subculture, right down to the black silk jackets with dragons, etc., on the back, that Ernie and George wear when they want to blend in down at the ville. Limón's descriptions of the Korean countryside and culture are lyrically portrayed and ring true. ( ) Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
Pertany a aquestes sèriesSueño and Bascom (book 5)
The turbulent Korean peninsula provides the backdrop to this fine military mystery, the fifth (after 2005's The Door to Bitterness) to feature U.S. Army criminal investigation agents George Sueño and Ernie Bascom. A crack combat unit stationed near the strife-torn demilitarized zone proves strangely uncooperative when a military policewoman disappears. The missing soldier had made herself unpopular with her chain of command when she attempted to testify against two GIs who accidentally killed a Korean schoolgirl while speeding. As Sueño and Bascom dig past the obfuscation, they uncover an unsavory mix of black marketeering, sexual harassment, corruption, rape and murder, risking disgrace in their quest to find their fellow cop before it's too late.
