A Pulp Noir Classic of Violence, Sex and Revenge, Back-in-Print For The First Time in Over 70 Years
In 1946, playwright Ed Dirke strangled a woman to death in a drunken rage. He went to prison for seven years for second-degree murder. Now he’s out, back in New York, and determined to kill again. Only this time, it won’t be an accident and the victim will be his older brother Carl, a traitor working with Chinese Communist spies, who was responsible for the tragic events that provoked the murder.
Max Carter was a pseudonym for Morton Cooper Feinberg (1925-2004), a prolific novelist, ghostwriter, and journalist who wrote over 50 novels under his own name and others, including Mike Crane, Mark Clements, and Mavis Cromwell.
