One of the all-time classic baseball novels is finally back-in-print after sixty years. It's a story that only Charles Einstein, the sports writer beloved by millions in the 1950s and the biographer of Willie Mays, could have told.
Stat Hunter is the manager of a minor league baseball team who is struggling to keep his life and his players together. His wife has left him, he's being threatened by a blackmailer with secrets from his past, and his most promising player is being pressured by gamblers. He knows he should walk away from it all...but he can't. Because the only thing he's ever wanted, the only thing he could ever really do, and the only thing in the whole damn world worth caring about, is baseball.
An unconventional crime story that became a massive bestseller in the 1930s...launching Tiffany Thayer's controversial, and highly successful, writing a career, one that's all but forgotten today, even though he sold millions of books. Now, after nearly 100 years, the blockbuster Thirteen Men is finally back in print...and hasn't lost any of its narrative power over time. It is still, as the San Francisco Examiner declared, “One of the most realistic studies of the American melting pot that has ever been penned.”
This is Tiffany Thayer's massive, epic telling of the story behind the painting of Mona Lisa...a book so large, and a story so vast, that it took sixteen years to write, 1,226 pages to tell, and had to be divided into three volumes to publish. Now all three volumes are finally back in print after over 65 years lost in obscurity...and in one, single ebook for the first time ever!

The daring, long-lost classic by Tiffany Thayer, back in print after nearly 100 years...a novel that is "diabolically clever, daring and revealing. The crude and cruel power which has made Tiffany Thayer's novels famous was never more apparent than in Three Sheet." Lewiston Daily Sun
Jack Sheridan's pulp-noir classic, back in print for the first time in over sixty years. "Sheridan seems to be aiming at, and achieving, something higher and more powerful than just an entertaining story." New York World-Telegram
