A young man envisions an open avenue to early career success only to see it closed by authority. A retiree discovers that, for reasons unclear, each of the key relationships in his life has soured. An early love reappears to a widower in an unexpected encounter. A betrayal has unexpected results. Despite talent, high energy, and commitment, a young man's plans for a long career in the classroom is derailed. In the desert, a businessman has a revelation. A good man is falsely accused and responds to humiliation. Twenty years after he disappeared, an old friend resurfaces with a story to tell. . This collection, undertaken in late life, attempts to examine some of life's mysteries: how early dreams and expectations may go awry; relationships may not be what they seem; evil appears at any time and in many guises; love is not easily defined, explained, or sustained.

In this mercilessly compelling thriller, Burke—the private eye, sting artist, and occasional hit man who metes out a cruelly ingenious vengeance on those who victimize children—is up against a soft-spoken messiah, who may be rescuing runaways or recruiting them for his own hideous purposes. But in doing so Burke becomes a target for an entire Mafia family, a whore with a heart of cyanide, and a contract killer as implacable as a heat-seeking missile. Written with Vachss's signature narrative overdrive—and his unnerving familiarity with the sub-basement of American crime—Hard Candy is vintage Burke.

“Candy, why is your bed so big?” “… to fit my two boyfriends when we snuggle together at night.” Only that’s my father asking, staring at the bed in question. Oops. So yeah. Unruly Jethro and cocky Joel are now officially my boyfriends. My Candy Boys. I moved in with them, and I expected things to be tense, awkward. I was wrong. This feels so right, and well, hot. These boys are SO hot. But with college starting, Jethro returning to work at the bookshop, and Joel planning to start his own business, everything’s shifting. Not to forget the fact that Joel still hasn’t confronted his parents about our relationship, that Jethro is still recovering from his dad’s brutal attack, and that I feel insecure, well… Wait a sec. Insecure? Come on, Candy. That’s BS. These boys love you. Yeah, I know. The boys and me, we’re solid. However, doubt still lingers. I mean, Joel’s parents hate each other. Jethro’s dad killed his mom, for chrissakes—and my mom has acquired a sudden interest in sex toys and escort services. So I wonder if true love really exists. Love that doesn’t fade over time. You know, the kind that withstands nightmares and bad jokes, unwashed dishes in the sink and lack of lube. Yeah, that happened. These boys own me. They’re sweet, sexy and caring—but will they break my heart, or is this our happily ever after?

Joel and Jethro. Roommates. Total hunks. Inseparable friends. Hot. Meet my fantasy boyfriends. Aren’t they just the cutest thing? I know, right? They totally are. They are hot, too hot for a quiet—and obsessed with them—girl working in a bookshop. That’d be me, by the way. There’s also the tiny problem of Joel wanting another girl. And as for Jethro, well… he doesn’t do relationships. So it’s fine to crush on them. And write a serial story on my blog in which we do crazy things. All three of us. Together. Whew. I mean, it’s okay. It’s perfectly safe. They’ll never even know I exist, much less find out about my blog and my secret fantasy about them. Right? Yeah, that’s what I thought, too.
