And in his business--called "information retrieval" by its practitioners--that gift is invaluable, because truth is the hottest thing on the market. Geiger's clients count on him to extract the truth from even the most reluctant subjects. Unlike most of his competitors, Geiger rarely sheds blood, but he does use a variety of techniques--some physical, many psychological--to push his subjects to a point where pain takes a backseat to fear. Because only then will they finally stop lying. One of Geiger's rules is that he never works with children. So when his partner, former journalist Harry Boddicker, unwittingly brings in a client who insists that Geiger interrogate a twelve-year-old boy, Geiger responds instinctively. He rescues the boy from his captor, removes him to the safety of his New York City loft, and promises to protect him from further harm. But if Geiger and Harry cannot quickly discover why the client is so desperate to learn the boy's secret, they themselves will become the victims of an utterly ruthless adversary"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Torturers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Boys $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Journalists $v Fiction. 651 0 $a New York (N.Y.) $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Suspense fiction. $2 gsafd 941 $a 16 952 $l FKPA224 $d 20221005011452.0 952 $l AQPC277 $d 20201212012725.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006061736.0 952 $l MXPG943 $d 20180720040809.0 952 $l MMPE553 $d 20180719041046.0 952 $l NKPD993 $d 20180718040842.0 952 $l NXPA663 $d 20180711043627.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20170418084129.0 952 $l VMPC334 $d 20170118033139.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20160202062550.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20150911032346.0 952 $l EBPE325 $d 20150227024520.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20140812080711.0 952 $l RZPE145 $d 20140619023735.0 952 $l GUPF501 $d 20130201010545.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20120502010822.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=69B2C8E636A211E18647CC926AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
