Ambler — Fred Halliday

AMBLER...
is determined to live in a perfect world.
Crime is an affront to this perfection, and Ambler takes it personally.
He becomes a deadly avenger, an
ingenious urban vigilante.

AMBLER...
in turn, is pursued by Capalbo, the city's ambitious young district attorney.

But when Capalbo begins to think of
Ambler not as a menace but as a vital cleansing agent who can be used to purge society of the filth that eludes conventional justice, he lives to regret it.

AMBLER...
is a story of the conflict and rage created by the collapsing social values of our time. It embodies the choices as well as the crises we all may someday soon have to face.
