Canoza always forgets to wear his bulletproof vest—maybe not a death wish, but surely some sort of ambiguity. Reseta is still fighting the Vietcong and the bullies from his childhood. These three patrolmen travel the town in their mobile units, satellites moving slowly but surely across the darkened neighborhoods; at times their orbits cross.”}, year = {2002}, journal = {Mario Balzic series, 17/17}, pages = {294 p.}, publisher = {The Mysterious Press of Warner Books}, address = {New York}, note = {K.
