Jade Lady Burning by Martin Limón
A George Sueño and Ernie Bascom Mystery
Publisher: Soho Crime
This first book in a series of seven — the most recent, Mr. Kill, was published this past December — introduces military policemen George Sueño and Ernie Bascom, who are stationed in South Korea.
About Jade Lady Burning (from the publisher): Almost twenty years after the end of the Korean War, the U.S. Military is still present throughout South Korea, and tensions run high. Koreans look for any opportunity to hate the soldiers who drink at their bars and carouse with their women. When Pak Ok-Suk, a young Korean woman, is found brutally murdered in a torched apartment in the Itaewon red-light district of Seoul, it looks like it might be the work of her American soldier boyfriend. Sergeants George Sueño and Ernie Bascom, Military Police for the U.S. 8th Army, are assigned to the case, but they have nothing to go on other than a tenuous connection to an infamous prostitute. As repressed resentments erupt around them, the pair sets out on an increasingly dangerous quest to find evidence that will absolve their countryman.
Important Note: Barnes&Noble updates its Nook Daily Find every day at approximately midnight PT. The title referenced above is available at a discounted price for Tuesday, February 07, 2012 only.
