Each is a sacrifice,a summons.                   And something in the shadows has heard the call. But another is coming: Parker the hunter,the avenger. Parker's mission takes him from Maine to the deserts of the Mexican border; from the canals of Amsterdam to the streets of London - he will track those who would cast this world into darkness. Parker fears no evil.But evil fears him . . .    Please contact seller,because of the weight of this item,for correct shipping/P+p quotes - particularly ALL overseas buyers - BEFORE ordering through the order page!               N.B.
