Missing People: The Adventures of Mal Yasic

by Jorge Heufemann
Richard Evans
ebook
Read a sample Read a sample
Missing People is a collection of three short stories featuring Mal Yasic - a hard luck detective with an itchy trigger finger and a big heart. Missing People is gritty crime fiction well grounded in everyday life. In Mal Yasic, Jorge Heufemann has created a detective that is both compassionate and dangerous, but always unlucky. Originally published in Spanish in Jorge's home country of Argentina, this is the first English language translation of Mal Yasic. Two of the three stories within are full color, the third retains its original black and white style. All three have a smooth style and the edgy dialogue of most imported comics, similar to those that would appear in adult oriented magazines like Heavy Metal. Three chapters in the life of Mal Yasic that you can't get anywhere else. Brief descriptions of the stories follow; Legend: A strange woman, an ancient curse and a group of drug lords. And Mal Yasic in the middle. The Dancer: A mother hires Mal Yasic to find her daughter, but everyone is playing games and nothing is what it appears to be. New York City Karma: When a powerful politician hires Mal to do his dirty work, Mal Yasic must decide how far he will go for a client and whether or not to make enemies in high places.
