The Nine-Tailed Fox

By Martin Limón

Book Overview

Martin Lim n's series set in 1970s South Korea, an era of heightened Korean sociopolitical tension, pits Army CID agents Sue o and Bascom against a mysterious woman who may be the leader of a gang--or a thousand-year-old creature. Three American GIs have gone missing in different South Korean cities. Sergeants George Sue o and Ernie Bascom, agents for the Army CID, link the disappearances to a woman locally rumored to be a gumiho, a legendary thousand-year-old nine-tailed fox disguised as a woman. George suspects that the woman is no mythical creature, but a criminal who's good at covering her tracks. Meanwhile, George and Ernie are caught in a power struggle between two high-ranking women in the 8th Army. Scrambling to appease his boss and stay one step ahead of a psychotic mastermind, George realizes he will have to risk his life to discover the whereabouts of his fellow countrymen.
