ON MICKEY SPILLANE'S 100TH BIRTHDAY - A BRAND-NEW NOVEL FROM THE MASTER When legendary mystery writer Mickey Spillane died in 2006, he left behind the manuscript of one last novel he'd just completed: THE LAST STAND. He asked his friend and colleague (and fellow Mystery Writers of America Grand Master) Max Allan Collins to take responsibility for finding the right time and place to publish this final book. Now, on the hundredth anniversary of Spillane's birth, his millions of fans will at last get to read THE LAST STAND, together with a second never-before-published work, this one from early in Spillane's career: the feverish crime novella A BULLET FOR SATISFACTION. A tarnished former cop goes on a crusade to find a politician's killer and avoid the .45-caliber slug with his name on it. A pilot forced to make an emergency landing in the desert finds himself at the center of a struggle between FBI agents, unsavory fortune hunters, and members of the local Indian tribe to control a mysterious find that could mean wealth and power - or death. Two substantial new works filled with Spillane's muscular prose and the gorgeous women and two-fisted action the author was famous for, topped off by an introduction from Max Allan Collins describing the history of these lost manuscripts and his long relationship with the writer who was his mentor, his hero, and for much of the last century the bestselling author in the world.

The master of hard-boiled detective fiction is back -- and better than ever -- with Something''s Down There, a blade-sharp thriller set among the islands of the Caribbean. To the casual observer, Mako Hooker looks like any other grizzled fishing-boat captain trawling the Bermuda Triangle. He''s content with his nets in the water and a beer in the cooler, but he''s hardly your typical fisherman. Hooker is in fact a retired government operative taking a much-needed respite from his highly secret, highly lethal career in the States. But when local fishermen begin to fall prey to a mysterious sea creature the islanders dub "the eater," he discovers the truth in that old saw about the spy game: You''re not retired from the Company until you''re dead. Is the monster a prehistoric beast rising from the depths? Or mines from a sunken WWII destroyer, only now shaken loose by the U.S. Navy''s depth charges? Or the work of someone with an agenda even more deeply undercover than Hooker''s? Hooker quietly begins to investigate with the help of his unwitting fishing partner, Billy Bright; a local movie heiress, the seductive Judy Durant; and Hooker''s old nemesis, Chana Sterling. The Company sent her as backup, but Hooker doesn''t trust power-hungry government agents too far -- especially Chana, who once put a bullet in him for no good reason. As more boats are mauled and the islanders begin to panic, the action heats up and the players multiply: a Hollywood film company arrives on the scene, eager to turn live footage of "the eater" into box-office payoff, and the heavyweight film executive in charge looks suspiciously like Tony Pallatzo, a Brooklyn mobster from Hooker''s violent past. As he moves steadily closer to the truth, Hooker realizes that someone (or something) is plotting to stop him, and only his rusty instincts will save him this time. A riveting story of criminal intrigue, greed, romance, and the mysteries of the deep, Something''s Down There showcases Mickey Spillane at his best.

It keeps coming back to Hammer... The image of bloodshed in his office remained etched in Mike Hammer''s mind forever - his secretary sprawled on the floor and a stranger sitting dead and mutilated at his own desk. In one moment a storm of madness entered the private eye''s life. As he starts hunting for the killer, Hammer is haunted by the message left on his desk: "You die for killing me." Suddenly, he is in too deep with a lethal blonde who has big ideas, a CIA secret, another set of murders, and the trail of an international hitman named Penta. Now Hammer knows it''s only a matter of time...

Here''s Mickey Spillane and Mike Hammer in their roughest and readiest—a double-strength shot of sex, violence, and action that is vintage Spillane all the way. It''s a tough-guy mystery to please even the most bloodthirsty of fans!

The rain clawed at the windows of the bar.  Hammer was angry and wanted to be left alone.  But when he sees a desperate guy abandon his kid in a bar just to step outside and get blown away, Hammer''s mood switches from bad to worse.  By the time he reaches the dead body, he knows he will have to pound his way through a world of thugs and wiseguys to find out how a reformed ex-con got desperate enough to die like that.  What Hammer doesn''t know is how a beautiful woman will figure in--and how many bullets justice will take.

He called her Red.  She called him in from the cold.  For one short moment in the big, hard city they were friends--and then the girl turned up dead.  Mike Hammer will walk through walls to find out who she was and why she died, even if he doesn''t like the answers he gets.  Even if they are all about a seamy network of call-girls, blackmail, and hoods.  Hammer owes something to Red, and he plans to make good-because in this town a friend is hard to find. Mickey Spillane has been hailed as "the most widely read writer in history."  His novels celebrate a tradition of gut-wrenching action, gritty realism, and the best in fast-paced mystery.

He was a nice guy. Now he''s dead. That''s all Hammer knows about the stiff in the hotel room. But that isn''t enough because Hammer suspects murder while the cops are calling it a suicide. Without a license or a gun, Hammer is pushing his way through a swirl of sex-and-game clubs, high priced models and not just a little blackmail. Someone is working hard to frame Hammer and he''s working hard to find out why. Everywhere he turns, he keeps coming up against a blonde beauty named Juno. She holds the key to the crime wave that could unlock the mystery behind the nice guy''s murder.

No dame is pretty with a gun in her hand. But at least this one was alive. The last time Mike Hammer met up with a blonde she ended up dead, and Hammer inherited a war with the Mob. As he digs deeper, he discovers that about fifteen years ago the Mafia had been double crossed. Now, people are dying because of it and the girl with the gun is a crucial witness in the case. While Hammer''s enemies are searching the city for him, he is ready to go after them. Along the way, he''ll find out just how deadly a kiss can get...

Nobody ever walked across the bridge at night. But on the foggy night that Hammer took that chance, his encounter with a gun-toting thug and a girl on the lam ended with both strangers dead. Soon Hammer is caught in a web of sinister gangsters and beautiful women the likes of which he''s never seen -- and his only way out is to kill and kill again...even with his bare hands.

In the west legends are made one bullet at a time…Trinidad, New Mexico, is an oasis of civilization in an untamed desert ruled by outlaws, bank robbers and horse thieves. Sheriff Harry Gauge rules his town with an iron fist, a fast gun, and an unbridled thirst for power.George Cullen sweated blood to carve a ranch from the wilderness. He’d rather take a bullet to the gut than give in to the greedy sheriff''s land grab. But a cattle empire isn''t all Gauge wants—he also has his eye on Cullen’s beautiful daughter, Willa.Cullen gets word out that he’s hiring the fastest gunslinger money can buy to take on the sheriff. When a stranger rides in, townsfolk wonder if this is the rancher’s hired gun. Wherever he came from, wherever he’s going, two things are clear—the stranger won’t be pushed . . . and his aim is deadly."Spillane is a master in compelling you to always turn the next page." —The New York Times"Collins displays his mastery of Spillane''s distinctive two-fisted prose." —Publishers Weekly

But before he can leave Trinidad, New Mexico, a peaceful morning erupts in a barrage of gunfire.
