Cross, a mercenary who preys on other predators in the criminal underworld of Chicago in a pool hall bunker called "Red 71" with his crew of fellow mercenaries is approached by a group of CIA sponsored operatives to help them find something that for at least two of their number killed their friends, the government wants Cross's help to find and capture a predator, a space hunter so they can pick its corpse of its technology to give to the military. This sends him into an Illinois prison where the predator is hunting inmates, since Illinois a no kill state. Each character by Vachss is amazing from the two operatives who join the Cross crew onto the crew itself, even characters like the warden and the shot-callers of the prison factions are enjoyable. A read worthy for all fans of the hard-boiled and Sci-Fi genres.
