Gunshots in Another Room
Dan J. Marlowe (1914-1986), author of The Name of the Game is Death, was one of the finest paperback suspense novelists of the 1960s and 1970s, so good that Stephen King dedicated a book to him. But Marlowe's life was full of strange drama, some featuring his friendship with bank robber Al Nussbaum, a partner of the murderous sociopath Bobby "One-Eye" Wilcoxson. This biography interweaves the stories of Nussbaum, who became a mystery-story writer, Wilcoxson, who committed a savage murder after being released from prison, and Marlowe, who, stricken with amnesia, was haunted by the ghosts of his past, some of whom roamed the world of kinky sex.

The Name of the Game is Death / One Endless Hour
Two novels from "the hardest of the hard-boiled"--Stephen King.
Operation Fireball
Five strangers … Two million bucks … One lusty redhead … And no holds barred. Staying out of trouble might be relaxing for some guys. But too much peace and quite make me very nervous. Hazel—the luscious lady who keeps me busy and happy during long winter evenings—was trying to sell me her retirement plan. I was tempted. But then suddenly an old pen pal turned up with a couple of friends and a scheme that started my motors going full blast. A two million dollar heist. Cash. Already out of the bank and stashed in a nice, respectable museum—in Cuba. They needed me to help them get it back to the States. That should have tipped me. A hijacker trying to get back from Cuba? I shoulda stood in bed. With Hazel.
Strongarm
Meet Pete Karma, the man who broke jail and wound up neck-deep in a gangland bloodbath. Pete had a lot of hate stored up inside. He hadn’t committed the murder he’d been sent up for, and it didn’t take him long to figure out who’d framed him and how. After two and a half years in the slammer, Pete had his plan down perfect. His crooked lawyer, Charlie Risko, would get it first. But as soon as Pete had a spare moment, there were some other things that had to be taken care of.
Never Live Twice

For everything, including what every discontented little housewife needs—a foolproof method for becoming a wealthy young widow.
The Fatal Frails
The statue was knee-high, but it carried a fortune in gold and gems, plus centuries of fame in the art world. Everyone wanted it, and for some no price was too high—love, money, or murder … Then Killain barged in. The redhead made the first pitch, and she had Killain twanging like a hopped-up fiddle—but not one note about the statue. The Blonde tried to bargain across a wide-screen bed, and she convinced Johnny that he should negotiate—but not about the statue. The Ape had a simple proposition: Hand over the statue or I’ll beat in your head! This annoyed Johnny Killain. Much bloodshed and many murders later …

The Kingdom of Killain -- that's the Duarte, a big-city hotel at the crossroads of the world. The grifters, tough lads, girls on the make -- all learn to stay away from Hotel Duarte because Johnny Killain's in charge there. That's his turf -- a flick of his fist makes broken guys and dolls. So Johnny patrolled the dark corridors in peace...until the night he rounded a bend and looked murder square in the eye. The blonde lay on the bed in 609, her face a puffed, blue, strangled horror. Her name was Ellen Killain, and she was Johnny's ex-wife. His still-beloved ex-wife.

Shake a Crooked Town
Murder struck first in Hotel Duarte, where Johnny Killain ruled the roost. Here’s Killain, smooth as a ripsaw and gentle as a jackhammer, the happiest avalanche you’ll ever meet, who spends his quiet moments riding herd on the hoods and hopheads, the hard guys and devilish dolls of New York’s night sight, just a knife’s thrown from Times Square. Trouble’s no stranger to Killain; when an out-of-town mob started making corpses Johnny’s room, he began to get annoyed. Then the boys tagged him for the big fall, and there was only one thing to do—find the brain and shake his molars loose! So Killain came to racket-ruled Jefferson, and the boys were there to welcome him—with clubs, knives, guns, and enough hired muscle to carry off Grant’s Tomb. When Killain kept coming, the boys turned mean. They finally forced Killain to run … but they forgot to get out of his way!
