A Darkening Stain: Bruce Medway Mysteries

Autor Robert Wilson
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 iul 2004
When schoolgirls begin to disappear on the West African coast, "troubleshooter" Bruce Medway tries to remain detached. Meanwhile, he reluctantly acquires a new job from former nemesis and mafia capo Franconelli. Franconelli gives Bruce forty-eight hours to find a French trader, Mariner, whom not even the mafia has been able to track. Yet as Bruce sets out on his assignment, he is unable to remain disconnected from the mysterious schoolgirl disappearances, and finds that girls, gold, and greed are all interconnected; corruption abounds everywhere. There are no safe havens for Bruce in this situation, and he must devise a scam that risks everything in order to stay alive.

A brilliant follow-up to Blood is Dirt, and the fourth novel in the Bruce Medway series, A Darkening Stain takes Bruce Medway into the darkest territory of West Africa yet.

there.”—VAL McDERMID, a u t h o r o f THE DISTANT ECHO
"Tightly plotted and tautly written ... Perfectly attuned to the violent
wavelength of this unpredictable world."
—THE SUNDAY TIMES (LONDON)
