The  Dark Streets: A Jack Liffey Mystery
The Dark Streets: A Jack Liffey Mystery by John Shannon

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Great story. Jack Liffey is a great anti-hero. He tries. And succeeds in spite of himself.

This story takes place (as always with Jack Liffey) in Los Angeles. He is hired to find the missing 18 yr old daughter of a Korean immigrant family. So we learn something about the modern history of Korea, WWII, and Japan. Also more regarding gangs in L.A.

As well as the wonders of the Patriot Act and security “contractors”.
