Blood of the Wicked (A Chief Inspector Mario Silva Investigation)

Blood of the Wicked (A Chief Inspector Mario Silva Investigation)

The first book in Leighton Gageâ€™s critically acclaimed police procedural series set in Brazil, now available in paperback at the special introductory price of $9.99
Â
Chief Inspector Mario Silva of Brazilâ€™s Federal Police is a good cop in a bad systemâ€”Brazil's justice system is rife with corruption, and constantly a beat behind criminal elements. But Silva and his team of colorful sidekicksâ€”baby-faced GonÃ§alves, who is irresistible to lady witnesses; chubby, crass NuÃ±es; Mara Carta, the chief of intelligence with a soft spot for Marioâ€”crack their difficult and sometimes ugly cases with pizazz.
Â
In the interior of Brazil, landless workers battle the owners of vast fazendas. When a visiting archbishop is assassinated, Mario Silva is called upon to investigate. Then a newspaper owner, a TV journalist, a landowner's son, and a priest are brutally killed. In a country where dead street kids are known as "hams," justice is scarce.
