The Big Kill

En savoir plus sur le livre

On one of those nights when the sky hangs low, enveloping the world in a gray cloak, rain scratches at the bar's windows like an angry cat, trying to seep inside whenever a drunkard stumbles through the door. Outside, a Buick screeches to a halt. An man exits the bar, leaving behind a two-year-old child. Gunshots ring out. In mere seconds, a double murder unfolds before the astonished eyes of Mike Hammer. Who is the ruthless driver of the Buick, who sped away after deliberately running over his companion? And who is the father of the child abandoned in the bar? Why did he go out to be killed so coldly? These dramatic questions drive Mike Hammer, the "vigilante detective," to seek answers, risking his life time and again. Set against the backdrop of a captivating New York, "The Big Kill" features all the classic Spillane elements: sex, luxury cars, whiskey, and endless suspense, culminating in an utterly unpredictable conclusion.
