Ghosts of War: A Blazer Novel - Paperback

by G. C. Harmon (Author)

Before Steve Blazer was given command of SFPD's Special Forces, before he was a crack Homicide Inspector, he was an elite up and comer on the Vice Squad. While attempting to bust a gang of Asian drug smugglers, two Vice cops are murdered by a mysterious killer. The killer leaves a signature, one that means something to Blazer's mentor, Captain John Stanson. The gang is tied to a wealthy Vietnamese businessman who rules San Francisco's Little Saigon district with an iron fist, and Blazer soon clashes with the Federal Agency providing his protection. When that businessman is murdered, the feds want to put Blazer on the top of their list of suspects. While the Vice squad pursues a drug ring from the Golden Triangle and a cop killer, Stanson goes on a perilous journey of his own, reliving parts of his violent past, with Blazer in tow. He finally reveals to Blazer his history with the CIA and a surprising connection to the Vietnam War. Along the way, Blazer finds his mentor can still teach him a few lessons in patriotism and valor.
