Mike Hammer - Complex 90

Hammer accompanies a conservative politician to Moscow on a fact-finding mission. While there, he is arrested by the KGB on a bogus charge, and imprisoned; but he quickly escapes, creating an international incident by getting into a firefight with Russian agents. On his stateside return, the government is none too happy with Mr. Hammer. Russia is insisting upon his return to stand charges, and various government agencies are following him. A question dogs our hero: why him? Why does Russia want him back, and why (as evidence increasingly indicates) was he singled out to accompany the senator to Russia in the first place? PRAISE FOR MICKEY SPILLANE "Mike Hammer is an icon of our culture."—The New York Times "A superb writer. Spillane is one of the century's bestselling authors."—The Plain Dealer (Cleveland) PRAISE FOR MAX ALLAN COLLINS "Max Allan Collins is the closest thing we have to a 21st century Mickey Spillane."—ThisWeek (Ohio) "Collins' witty, hardboiled prose would make Raymond Chandler proud."—Entertainment Weekly Publishers Weekly: "There are ample servings of the sex and violence Spillane fans have come to expect, and it's impossible to tell where Spillane's work stops and Collins's begins." The Library Journal: "The men are tough, the women are sexy, and the pages turn faster than the bodies pile up—what else could you ask for in a hard-boiled thriller?"
