Produktinformationen zu „Terminal “
A terminally ill, ex-con needs cash to gamble on the long-shot possibility of a cure that's available only in Switzerland and contacts Burke with the only card he has to play, a small-time degenerate who paid for protection when they were in prison together and claims he personally buried the body of a girl thirteen-year-old girl who had been raped, tortured, and finally killed by three rich men more than thirty years ago--and that he's holding irrefutable proof. TERMINAL is a blistering thriller that forces Burke back in time--to to avenge the"cold-cased"rape-murder of this girl.
Klappentext zu „Terminal “
After years of carefully working the edges, a blood-commitment forces Burke's return to his former career: "violence-for-money." Claw, once the shot-caller of a white supremacist prison gang is free . . . and terminally ill--he desperately needs a pile of cash to bet on a long-shot cure. He tells Burke about a punk who once purchased protection from him, a man who claims to know the truth behind a "cold case, " the unsolved rape-murder of a thirteen-year-old girl. The killers are all weathly men today, ideal blackmail marks. But wealth is power, and the informant needs Claw's protection again. Burke decides to roll the dice. A win would give Burke the two things he lives for: Money and Revenge. A loss would turn "terminal" from a diagnosis into a certainly, and not just for Claw.
