Mask Market (Burke Series)

They meet in a no€“name diner. A shadowy man hands Burke a CD dossier of someone he wants found. Minutes later, as Burke watches from an alley, his client is gunned down by a professional hunter€“killer team. Burke slips away, unsure if he€s been spotted. Later, when he examines the dossier, he discovers that the missing woman is Beryl Preston, a girl he€d rescued from a brutal pimp twenty years earlier€"when she was only thirteen€"and returned to her father. Now he has to find her again€"not only because she might be in danger, but also because he has to prove to himself that his rescue mission hadn€t been financed by a predator who wanted his €œproperty€ returned. His search will force him to confront a new kind of human ugliness and, finally, to practice the survivalist triage that has marked€"and cursed€"his life since childhood. In Mask Market, Burke the outlaw investigator finds himself searching for the truth: not only about a girl named Beryl, but also about himself.

This is classic Burke: dark, dangerous, and galvanizing, from the opening scene to the explosive climax.
