Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"Estleman ...is at the top of his game.... Snappy dialogue, fast-paced action, colorful characters and plenty of bullets, booze and blood make this western crime drama a wicked romp."--"Publishers Weekly" "A historical western in mirror-smooth mahogany prose... Louis L'Amour looks down with envy."--"Kirkus Reviews""" "A wildly entertaining read with great period atmosphere and dialogue."--"Booklist"

Reseña del editor:

Hired killers are sent one by one to the Montana Territory after Page Murdock. Murdock doesn't know why someone wants him out of the way, but he knows where the assassins are coming from. Thus begins Murdock's descent into a hell more decadent, corrupt, and dangerous than even he has ever seen - San Francisco's Barbary Coast. Murdock takes up temporary residence among the whores, gamblers, dope addicts, and cutthroats of the continent's foulest district. No man here is trustworthy. The enemies he's really worried about, though, are the men who run things: the politicians. Murdock's quest takes him into Chinatown, into opium dens, and into an alliance with a man of an alient culture who controls vices that make respectable people quail. But perhaps the men who seem respectable are the most insidious of all.
