Description
The brainchild of Amazon Kindle Number One bestselling western writers Mike Stotter and Ben Bridges, PICCADILLY PUBLISHING is dedicated to issuing classic fiction from Yesterday and Today!
DON’T BLEED ON ME
‘His face was as broad as the moon, pink and hairless, and his great bald scalp was like a reflection of his face. His mouth was a remorseless gap in his features. His left eye was covered by an eye patch made of some silver material which caught the light. His one remaining eye, which was red-rimmed and bloodshot, had a gold monocle screwed into it.’
An evocative description of the mad President Trygon, Mike Faraday’s principal opponent in his sixth adventure, in which the laconic Californian private eye is pitted against a state within a state. The story moves at a rattling pace to match the machine-gun and tank finale, which surpasses spectacle in Mike’s previous cases. April Dawn is the new girl, but Stella is against firmly in control of the office.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Basil Copper became a full-time writer in 1970. In addition to horror and detective fiction, Copper was perhaps best known for his series of Solar Pons stories continuing the character created as a tribute to Sherlock Holmes by August Derleth. He also wrote a series of 52 hard-boiled thrillers featuring the Los Angeles private investigator Mike Faraday, an obvious and acknowledged homage to Raymond Chandler's Philip Marlowe. Piccadilly Publishing is proud to publish the entire series, one book every month, in these all-new, low-priced ebook editions.
