CUDDY’S BEEN DOWN A LOT OF MEAN STREETS— BUT DEATH IS NEVER EASY
Body found on Beacon Hill, victim unknown.
The police closed the case—but for private detective John Cuddy, it was the beginning of a trip into hell.
The victim was his best buddy from Vietnam. One look at the mutilated body with its telltale broken finger, and he got a last, inexorable message.
From Boston’s seediest precinct to backstreet Pittsburgh to the heart of the Pentagon, Cuddy goes beyond the law to avenge his friend. Forced underground, he probes the army’s secret files to track a cult of killers operating long after the fall of Saigon. One of them killed his friend—and now he’ll feel the hard, cold steel of vengeance.
