A terminally ill white supremacist contacts Burke, with bona fide references. He needs Burke's expertise for a major blackmail job to pay for his cancer treatment in Switzerland. With dwindling sources of revenue, Burke and his family decide to assist. Some thirty years in the past, three teenage boys raped and murdered a teenage girl in an affluent community, and got away with it so Burke had morality on his side. The story was fine, but Vachss now spends way too much time on his characters and their issues than he does on the plot itself, a major detraction from his earlier works.

Appartient à la sérieBurke (17)
When the former shot-caller of the country's most feared white supremacist prison gang contacts Burke, he comes with references...and the promise of a huge score. Terminally ill, the ex-con needs major cash to gamble on the long-shot possibility of a cure that's available only in Switzerland. The one card he has to play is a small-time degenerate who paid for protection when they were in prison together. That professional bottom-feeder claims he personally buried the body of a thirteen-year-old girl who had been raped, tortured, and finally killed by three rich men more than thirty years ago - and that he's holding irrefutable proof. But such a complicated extortion scheme needs the hand of a specialist crew, so Burke is offered a piece of the action. He and his outlaw family put together a lethal plan. If they can pull it off, Burke gets the two things he lives for: money and revenge. If they can't, "terminal" could prove to be more than just one man's diagnosis.
