"Dennis wrote with assurance. His prose was muscular, swift, and
highly readable." Joe R. Lansdale, from his introduction Jim
Hardman was an Atlanta cop until he was wrongly accused of
corruption and thrown off the force. Now he works as an unlicensed
PI, trouble-shooter and bodyguard...often partnered with his
drinking buddy Hump Evans, a black, ex-NFL player who supports his
playboy lifestyle by working as hired muscle. A small-town farmer
hires Hardman to find his teenage daughter who ran off to Atlanta
to become a model...and ended up a hooker. It's fast work for
Hardman, but she's gunned down minutes after he finds her. To hunt
her killer, Hardman and Hump Evans take a deep dive into a
bottomless cesspool of vice and greed that could drown them. This
new edition includes an introduction by Joe R. Lansdale, author of
the Hap & Leonard novels, and an afterword by Paul Bishop,
author and retired LAPD homicide detective. Praise for the HARDMAN
novels by Ralph Dennis: "Ralph Dennis is an underappreciated
master. His Hardman series is one of the finest in the P.I. genre."
Robert Randisi, founder of the Private Eye Writers of America
"Among the best series books around." Philadelphia Daily News
"Expert writing, plus good plotting and an unusual degree of
sensitivity." New York Times
