Five Star First Edition Mystery - The Hit and the Marksman

Edgar Award-winning author

Here's a double shot of crime from one of America's best-known authors. The Hit is a full-length novel that ranks with the best of man-on-the-run stories. In this instance, the running man happens to be Simon Crane, who made the mistake of appearing to have double-crossed the Mafia. The novel resonates with all the "inside look" feel of "The Sopranos" as Crane and a beautiful-but-mysterious woman look for three million dollars and the killer who framed him for a Mob murder. "The Marksman" is an original novelette, never published anywhere else, that is a crime and adventure story in the best Brian Garfield tradition -- a race against the clock, double- and triple-crosses, and a breathtaking confrontation that makes the ending one you'll never forget.
