He Won't Need It Now / The Dead Stay Dumb (James Hadley Chase, Rick Ollerman)

HE WON’T NEED IT NOW Bill Duffy is a tough newsman but he finally pushes too hard and is canned. That’s when he decides to take a photo job for a rich fat man named Morgan who wants Duffy to get some pictures of his ex-wife. Blackmail is involved, and Morgan wants the guy caught with the goods. But the set-up isn’t what it seems, and someone sticks a gun in Duffy’s back and makes off with the camera. Nor is the ex-wife who she appears to be. She’s Annabel English, a slumming society dame. And pretty soon Duffy is helping her get rid of the body of the dead blackmailer. Now Duffy is being followed by Morgan’s boys. It’s a toss-up who plays it harder, Morgan’s goons or red-headed Annabel, the most kill-crazy lady Duffy has ever met. THE DEAD STAY DUMB Dillon is as ruthless as they come, brutal and tough. When he wants something, he takes it-with a gun or with his fists, it doesn’t matter to Dillon. When he first blows into town, he hooks up with Nick and his girl, Myra. First they try to fix a fight, then Myra joins them as driver for a few heists. But Dillon isn’t satisfied with the penny-ante jobs. He’s got bigger plans. So he joins up with a local mob boss. Pretty soon, Nick realizes he’s out of his depth, but by then it’s too late. Now Dillon’s got Myra, and Myra’s got a taste of the high life. If only that were enough. Because Dillon’s got a tiger by its tail, and its name is Myra. And all Myra’s got to do to survive is stay out of the way of those iron fists.Издательство Stark House PressМягкий переплетОбъем - 292 стр.Формат - 140x210 мм.ISBN 9781944520076Год издания: 2016
