Call Me Killer! 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.

Wiretap! By

Wiretap! Fifteen years before the 1970 movie classic "The Conversation," there was "Wiretap!", Charles Einstein's stunning and authentic crime novel about a massive, illegal telephone eavesdropping operation within a major American city.  Back-in-print for the first time in over 65 years.

"Part pulp fiction, part true-crime narrative, Charles Einstein’s lurid potboiler 'Wiretap!' [is] perhaps the most famous novel about telephone tapping. Part of the appeal lies in its true-to-life details. A standout." Brian Hochman, author of "The Listerners: A History of Wiretapping in the United States"
