About the Book

Andrew Vachss has been a federal investigator in the area of sexually transmitted diseases, a social-services caseworker, a labor organizer, and the director of a maximum-security prison for aggressive-violent youth. Now a lawyer and consultant in private practice, he represents children and youths exclusively. A native New Yorker, Vachss divides his time between the city of his birth and the Pacific Northwest. From the Hardcover edition.

Review :
"Another Life" is the end of a journey that began with "Flood," Andrew Vachss's first novel featuring career criminal Burke and his Family of Choice. "I didn't set out to write a series. Who but a terminal narcissist would?" the author says of his 1985 debut. But twenty-three years-and seventeen Burke novels-later, Andrew Vachss is finally bringing down the curtain on a series that has been described as "urban nightmares" by "Publishers Weekly," and "strong, gritty, gut-bucket stuff" by the "Chicago Tribune," Anyone who has felt a part of the family that includes recurring series characters Max, the Mole, Michelle, the Prof, Terry, Clarence, and Mama-characters the "Seattle Post-Intelligencer" says "are as sharply defined as if they were etched in steel"-will want to be there for the end of the journey, as best-selling, award- winning author Andrew Vachss ties up the loose ends, and sends his Family of Choice off to ... "Another Life," "There's no way to put a [Vachss book] down once you've begun . . . The plot hooks are engaging and the one-liners pierce like bullets." -"Detroit Free Press" "Vachss is just about the toughest of contemporary crime novelists. [He] waves a powerful light across a city landscape that few writers go near and none portray so convincingly." -"Los Angeles Times ""The hardest-boiled crime fiction this side of Sing Sing." -"USA Today ""Sheer narrative drive is only part of what has kept readers coming back for more. [Burke] is a hero of our times. . . lord of the asphalt jungle." -"The Washington Post Book World ""Vachss's style is as inimitable and passionate as ever." -"Rocky Mountain News ""Vachss is a contemporarymaster." -"The Atlanta Journal-Constitution ""Writing in a style so sleekly engineered that it purrs when you pop the hood, Vachss gives such a smooth ride that it's easy to forget someone is driving." -"The New York Times ""Vachss has always been able to make other writers look candy-assed . . . And it's not because he manages to marry grim idealism to action-driven plots. It's because of the unflinching way he looks at evil." -"Chicago Reader ""Vachss is red hot and as serious as a punctured lung." -"Playboy ""The New York Burke inhabits is not borrowed from anybody and shimmers on the page as gaudily and scarily as it does on the street." -"New York " "From the Hardcover edition." "There's no way to put a [Vachss book] down once you've begun . . . The plot hooks are engaging and the one-liners pierce like bullets." -"Detroit Free Press" "Vachss is just about the toughest of contemporary crime novelists.
