โฆ Synopsis
First strike -- The white bear -- Lone wolf -- Haunts -- The problem with the pigs -- The Lazarus gate -- Unmarked graves -- Priests -- Tomb -- Model town.;Wild stories featuring favorite characters from the Mongo Mysteries, including Mongo's brother, Garth Frederickson, and ex-CIA agent/Vietnam vet Veil Kendry. Three very different sleuths--an ex-NYPD cop, a psychic painter and vigilante, and a former priest--handle unusual cases in this collection from the "unlimited imagination" of George C. Chesbro, creator of the one-of-a-kind dwarf detective, Mongo the Magnificent (Publishers Weekly). When a mad scientist injected him with a rare drug, former policeman Garth Frederickson--brother of Dr. Robert Fredrickson, aka Mongo--developed the power to sense the often-malevolent feelings of those around him ... Veil Kendry, ex-CIA agent, Vietnam War veteran, and devoted martial arts instructor, almost died at birth. The damage left him with powerful dreams that have made him a successful abstract painter--and a dangerous vigilante ... Brendan Furie was once a priest who carried a Bible, but after a mishandled exorcism forced him out of the church, he became a PI armed with a gun ... In Lone Wolves, these unconventional antiheroes take on deadly militias, doomsday cults, East German secret police, alien abductions, telepathy experiments, Chinese street gangs, ghosts, demonic possessions, and more.
