Summary

Book description: Genre': Noir. Era: early 1960's. Setting: Eastern US and Vietnam WarYoung, violence hardened, military veteran William Real-Bad wages war against molesters and killers of women and children. William is 6' tall, 190 lbs, with brown hair, blue eyes and bland features. With occasional help from a few friends, he tracks down killers and puts them out of business… permanently. William is an expert at hand-to-hand combat and is an excellent pistol shot, preferring the Colt Model 1911 semi-automatic pistol. Along the way they tangle with a bloodthirsty gang of human traffickers headed by Bustamonte. The primary antagonist is Bustamonte's enforcer, Adolfo, a tall, slender, grim-faced man around 40, with black hair, a dark tan complexion and humorless black eyes. Adolfo is a veteran of many battles and is highly skilled with both gun and knife.
William and George strive to rescue hostages and end the careers of Bustamonte and Adolfo. The climax of the story is a personal battle between William and Adolfo.
