Synopsis
Angel Cardenas is a hardworking police detective in 21st Century Los Angeles. But Cardenas is no ordinary cop - as an intuit he possesses the special talent of knowing what others will do in any given situation. When a business man is found murdered, missing his vital organs and all his money Cardenas is on the case. His investigation takes him to the victim's home, where an explosion nearly kills him. Now, he has to figure out where the woman and the young girl who have been living there have disappeared to. And why doesn't the victim's I.D. match his DNA scan? Exploring the underworlds of Los Angeles, Cardenas will stop at nothing in his search for The Mock, a stonecold killer who will do anything to get what he wants.

Ex-library book with loose front endpaper removed & small library stamp to copyright page:- Synopsis: Alan Dean Foster, the bestselling author of the 'Commonwealth', 'Journeys Of The Catechist, and 'Spellsinger' novels is renowned for creating complex, convincing, vivid worlds of science fiction and fantasy. Now Foster takes readers to his grittiest, most exciting creation: the hard-boiled, high tech, fever-hot streets of the Montezuma Strip. A Mexamerican magalopolis, sprawling from Baja to the Gulf, the Strip is a Spanglish maelstrom of maquiladoras, muy malo hombres, mayhem, murder. And the home of one tough cop who specializes in solving the most devious, diabolic crimes that future felons can devise. Inspector Angel Cardenas has seen plenty of corpses like the one in Quetzal inurb - just another Juan Doe robbed of his cash, cards, internal organs, and then dumped in a gutter. However, Cardenas soon learns this particular murder is anything but ordinary. First, the infallible DNA_ID database insists the cadaver is that of two people - local executive George Anderson and a mysterious Texas businessman. Then Anderson's wife and daughter, Surtsey Mockerkin and Katla, turn up missing, their posh suburban home has been retrofitted into a huge time bomb. And at least three mob syndicates from as many continents are competing to capture or kill twelve-year-old Katla. Who was the dead man, and why is his daughter being hunted? Relying on his training as a nearly telepathic intuit, Inspector Cardenas embarks on a search that leads him from the sex parlors and stimstick clubs of the Strip - where kids are deadly and even music can kill - to an undersea control room where computer crimes are committed by criminal computers. Finding Katla Anderson is the key to unraveling the deadly mystery, but what Angel Cardenas doesn't know is that the closer he gets to the girl, the closer the assassins are getting to them:- Review(s): "Alan Dean Foster is a master storyteller" - SF Site / "Foster is a wonderful author" - Midwest Book Review / "One of the most consistently inventive and fertile writers of science fiction and fantasy" - The Times (London):- (original cost $24.95).
