Quarrys Deal (Hard Case Crime)

by Max Allan Collins (Author)

Synopsis

Behind the doors of an illegal casino, will Quarry find Lady Luck or a lady killer?

As part of his plan to target other hitmen, Quarry follows one from steamy Florida to the sober Midwest. But this killer isn't a man at all - she's a sloe-eyed beauty, as dangerous in bed as she is deadly on the job. Has Quarry finally met his match?

The longest-running series from Max Allan Collins, author of Road to Perdition, and the first ever to feature a hitman as the main character, the Quarry novels tell the story of a paid assassin with a rebellious streak and an unlikely taste for justice. Once a Marine sniper, Quarry found a new home stateside with a group of contract killers. But some men aren't made for taking orders - and when Quarry strikes off on his own, God help the man on the other side of his nine-millimeter...

Media Reviews
Quarry's Deal carries an archaic hardboiled sensibility of violence and misogyny, and on the surface is a diverting throw-back to the classic pulps. - Crime Fiction
