In his twelfth novel, Dead and Gone , author Andrew Vachss brings back his ex-con/career criminal/man for hire detective to serve as a middle man in an exchage of cash for a kidnapped child. Instead, Burke ends up wounded during a shootout and finds himself trapped out of his element, in a place where pedophiles, abortion clinic bombers, neo-Nazis, and kiddie porn producers have found safe harbor. Intrigued? Join in on our chat with an author of the darkest noir imaginable. Andrew Vachss has been a federal investigator in sexually transmitted diseases; a social case worker; a director of a maximum-security prison for youthful offenders. He is currently a lawyer in private practice who defends children and youths exclusively. Missed the live chat? Read the transcript below: Oslo, Norway.: Greetings Mr. Vachss. I've finally been able to get a copy of "Dead and Gone" in Norway. I'm full of respect for your work. In Norway we have recently captured two young "men" (19 and 21)who raped and killed two girls (8 and 10), yesterday a "man" won custody over his two younger daughter after confessing that he has molested the older daughter more than 15 times. (The child Protection Authorities supports this and claims he's a good father) and the largest opposing political party is trying to pass a bill on chemical castration. My questions are: Are you coming to Norway sometime? (I'll show you the sites;-) ) and what's your reaction to the two young "men" that killed and raped the two young girls? (I mean, even the FBI has asked for info, because the act and crime is very unusual.)

Andrew Vachss is "Lord of the asphalt jungle." "If I were to compare Andrew Vachss to any other writer, it would be to Charles Dickens—his larger-than-life characters, his deep commitment to the innocent victims of society, his hopes for redemption. As Dicken's prose dragged us into the back alleys, sweatshops, and debtors' prisons of old London, Vachss takes us through the depravity of perversion as it is acted out upon the lost innocence of the unprotected children of America today."

Two Trains Running has the unique challenge of being a small town that also has to serve as every town. That government asset in Two Trains Running The Da Vinci Code In fact, the heart of Two Trains Running may not be Walker Dett, but Jimmy Proctor, the underhanded but driven investigative reporter for the Locke City Compass . Like Proctor, Vachss believes in the power of journalism to change the way things are. Although Vachss will go back to Burke with a new book about human trafficking next year, tentatively titled Mask Market , he is touring behind Two Trains Running for the first time since The Getaway Man and looks forward to engaging both old fans and new readers.

20. SONS OF SPADE: Mask Market (Burke) By Andrew Vachss Mask Market (Burke) by andrew vachss. Take a ride in Burke s Plymouth as he takes you to the dark and violent streets of New York City. http://sonsofspade.blogspot.com/2007/11/mask-market-burke-by-andrew-vachss.html

skip to main skip to sidebar SONS OF SPADE Spotlighting the fictional P.I. Monday, November 5, 2007 Mask Market (Burke) by Andrew Vachss Take a ride in Burke's Plymouth as he takes you to the dark and violent streets of New York City... In his trademark tough guy, straightforward and ultra-hardboiled style Vachss tells about how Burke, the urban mercenary and avenger of abused kids, is contacted to recover a girl he recovered 20 years ago. When the guy to contact him is killed he wants to get to the bottom of why this happened and especially what it means to him. Not the most exciting plot he's ever written but you can still feel how authentic it is. The fun in a Vachss novel is not the surprises and storyline but the way he comments about the dark side of the world we live in. I did note Burke seemed a bit softer this time around though, and the special gift to his girl Loyal (just love the names Vachss gives the ladies) was a nice, refreshing ending.
