Description
"Sueno's sixth mystery (The Wandering Ghost, 2007, etc.) combines a brash, righteous hero with gritty local color for a crackling good read," said Kirkus. And Library Journal praised: "Sergeant Sueño of the Criminal Investigation Division of the Eighth U.S. Army in Seoul, South Korea, is asked to find the bones of a G.I. murdered at the end of the Korean War. Apparently, his ghost is haunting local fortune-tellers. But Sueño and his partner, Bascom, who are also probing the disappearace of an officer's daughter, find their lives are on the line when present-day criminals get into the action. In this sixth series entry the author demonstrates his knowledge of military politics and South Korea in the 1970s. The only question is why Limón has not received more recognition. Mystery fans, especially male readers and those who enjoy gritty police procedurals in exotic locations, will want this solid crime novel."
