Despre această carte electronică

When some strongarm hoods try to muscle in on the fight game, hefty Joe Puma is hired to find out who's doing the dirty work.

What looks like a typical rackets murder turns out to be a dangerous deal for the private eye. He tussles with some trigger-happy punks and a couple of lethal beauties.

Then in one quick leap from mattress to mat he finds himself in a clinch with a murderer who's still fighting, still hating, still bent . . . on the kill.

Despre autor

William Campbell Gault (1910 1995) was a critically acclaimed pulp novelist. Born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, he took seven years to graduate from high school. Though he was part of a juvenile gang, he wrote poetry in his spare time, signing it with a girl s name lest one of his friends find it. He sold his first story in 1936, and built a great career writing for pulps like "Paris Nights", "Scarlet Adventures", and the infamous "Black Mask". In 1939, Gault quit his job and started writing fulltime.When the success of his pulps began to fade in the 1950s, Gault turned to longer fiction, winning an Edgar Award for his first mystery, "Don t Cry for Me" (1952), which he wrote in twenty-eight days. He created private detectives Brock Callahan and Joe Puma, and also wrote juvenile sports books like "Cut-Rate Quarterback" (1977) and "Wild Willie, Wide Receiver" (1974). His final novel was "Dead Pigeon" (1992), a Brock Callahan mystery.
