Mickey Spillane
An American original. Tough and tender, wild and proud and mean. As honest as a swift right to the jaw.

In these three short novels, the acknowledged master of action-adventure explores the black-and-blue underground world of brutal thugs, bitter cops and cheap broads--the desperate world of THE TOUGH GUYS!

KICK IT OR KILL! One man against a covey of drug-happy broads with a nasty habit of answering questions with lead!

THE BASTARD BANNERMAN. A millionaire cop without a dime in his pocket fights the syndicate to save a man he hates!

THE SEVEN YEAR KILL. An ex-con reporter is offered a choice between love and revenge--and chooses both!
