Inhaltsangabe:

A classic Mike Hammer story from the New York Times bestselling authors Max Allan Collins and the master of noir Mickey Spillane, featuring a brand-new, never before seen, alternative ending.
 

Recuperating in Florida after the mob shoot-out that nearly claimed his life, Mike Hammer learns that an old mentor on the New York police force has committed suicide. Hammer returns for the funeral—and because he knows that Inspector Doolan would never have killed himself.
 
When a woman is murdered practically on the funeral’s doorstep, Hammer is drawn into the hunt for a cache of Nazi diamonds and for the mysterious woman who had been close to Doolan in his final days. Everything leads to a Mafia social club where Hammer and his .45 come calling, initiating the wildest showdown since Spillane’s classic One Lonely Night.
