Book description
Here, the criminal is king. The streets are filled with the screeching
of fish hags, the cries of swindled merchants, the inviting murmurs of
working girls. Here, people can disappear, and the lacklustre efforts of
the guard ensure they are never found. Warden is an ex-soldier who has
seen the worst men have to offer; now a narcotics dealer with a rich,
bloody past and a way of inviting danger. You'd struggle to find someone
with a soul as dark and troubled as his. But then a missing child,
murdered and horribly mutilated, is discovered in an alley. And then
another. With a mind as sharp as a blade and an old but powerful friend
in the city, he's the only man with a hope of finding the killer. If the
killer doesn't find him first. Daniel Polansky was born in Baltimore,
Maryland. He currently resides abroad. The Straight Razor Cure is his
first novel.
