Black Alley

The grandmaster of crime fiction returns with a Mike Hammer thriller--and America's best known P. I. is literally a new man! A retired Hammer wakes from a near-death coma to find that he is at the center of a search for $89 billion in missing mob money.

The mob suspects--rightly--that Hammer's friend has left a clue to the money's whereabouts. And to complicate matters, the Feds are also in on the race for the cash.
