"Thomas B. Dewey is one of detective fiction's severely underrated writers!" -- Bill Pronzini Pete thought he had it made. A cool half-grand, plus expenses, just to deliver Uncle Pierce Bonwell's bright-eyed and burstin' niece, Honeylou, to her Aunt Cindy -- in one piece. But Pete learned the hard way that Uncle Pierce wasn't giving money away. The cost of kidnapping and murder runs pretty high!

The girl had lost her guitar-playing boyfriend, but he had left her the most deadly legacy of all -- fear. And now it was up to me to protect her from the gun-carrying thugs who were relentlessly tracking her down. Hoodlums, hootenannies, and homicide!

"Thomas B. Dewey is one of detective fiction's severely underrated writers!" -- Bill Pronzini The naked lady was very beautiful and very dead. The police found that she had circled Mac's name in her phone book -- yet Mac couldn't remember her! What's a poor investigator to do -- but investigate? "A solidly satisfactory story -- fast, believable, well-characterized, a nice balance of restraint and overt violence." -- The New York Times

"Thomas B. Dewey is one of detective fiction's severely underrated writers!" -- Bill Pronzini "A neatly contrived and lively mixture of fast action and sex!" -- The New York Times Doll Baby just sat there, blinking her long black lashes and drawing on her long white cigarette. "You've got to help me, Petey Boy," she said. "They're after me. Two of 'em." If someone had to be tailed, Doll Baby sure made a likely target. But something else about this case didn't stack up. And it wasn't Doll Baby. She was doing just fine...

Carol Ann was very photogenic. Especially in certain pictures... But it was more than just a case of over-exposure. There was also a small matter of murder. For Pete Schofield, it was all in a day's -- and night's -- work. And very enjoyable work at that. Because Carol Ann was a cooperative subject, both on and off camera... "Thomas B. Dewey is one of detective fiction's severely underrated writers!" -- Bill Pronzini

This is the latest suspense novel about Mac, the Chicago private eye, whom Anthony Boucher recently called "one of fiction's best private detectives, solidly and humanly in the Hammett tradition."

(PORTRAIT OF A PRIVATE COP... "Call me Mac... I'm just a ...)
PORTRAIT OF A PRIVATE COP... "Call me Mac... I'm just a guy. I go around and get in jams and then try to figure a way out of them. I don't make very much money and most people insult me one way or another... I'm a fairly good shot with small arms, show-thiinking but thorough, and very dirty in a clinch." Mac gets into a jam this time even when he turns a job down. And all because of a book, an ex-gangster's patrician wife, and a red-headed cabaret doll. When all the blood is washed off and the smoke clears away, Mac has a murderer pinned down -- but he doesn't earn much more than a reputation as the most indestrictible man in the business. "Thomas B. Dewey is one of detective fiction's severely underrated writers!" -- Bill Pronzini "Mac has been called one of the most believable and humane PI's in crime fiction. He is reluctant to use either his gun or his fists, but will do so when the situation demands it, or in self-defense; he doesn't merely solve his clients' cases, but provides moral support and sympathy as well; and perhaps most notable of all, Mac feels, and is not afraid to show itópain, loss, sorrow, loneliness." --thrillingdetective.com

(Her name was Shaara, and she was built like a technicolor...)
Her name was Shaara, and she was built like a technicolor dream. From tip to toe ... from back to front ... the lady was intricately tattooed. The designs intrigued Pete Schofield, and so did the background ... until he saw that thinking along her lines could get him killed. Because someone had designs on her -- and not all the reasons were obvious! "Thomas B. Dewey is one of detective fiction's severely underrated writers!" -- Bill Pronzini Someone had designs on her ... and not all the reasons were obvious! It's up to Pete Schofield to keep her safe...and Nevada may never be the same!

"Dewey's story twists are fresh and the violence is realistic rather than sensational. Mac is one of our best private eyes and this adventure is honest and exciting." -- San Francisco Chronicle "Thomas B. Dewey is one of detective fiction's severely underrated writers!" -- Bill Pronzini P.I.s are not easily surprised, but Mac was surprised. The girl was too lovely, the price she was willing to pay too high, and her story didn't ring true. But she was badly frightened, so Mac, ever the gentleman, agreed to take the case. "Mac has been called one of the most believable and humane PI's in crime fiction. He is reluctant to use either his gun or his fists, but will do so when the situation demands it, or in self-defense; he doesn't merely solve his clients' cases, but provides moral support and sympathy as well; and perhaps most notable of all, Mac feels, and is not afraid to show itópain, loss, sorrow, loneliness." --thrillingdetective.com
