Burke is an ex-con with many ways of earning a buck and his own code of honor: he only does private eye work if the money and the client are right. Strega is an icy, beautiful Mafia princess who offers Burke money and sex to find a piece of kiddie porn. Burke agrees and hits the streets with his bizarre friends to plunge into the nightmarish world of child abuse.

"An absolute stunner, the toughest crime novel, and one of the most realistic, any American writer has produced." - (Cleveland Plain Dealer)
"It's wonderful. The words leap off the page. The plot is fresh. The principal character is original. The style is as clean as haiku." - (Washington Post Book World)
"So hard-boiled that it makes Mike Hammer and Sam Spade look like running yolks." - (Chicago Sun-Times)
