One Lonely Night
Mike Hammer at full throttle, answering his critics by shooting his way through them.
Mike Hammer, told by a judge that he is a killer who happens to hold a licence, spends the novel proving him right while dismantling a communist conspiracy in New York. Spillane wrote it in response to the critics who despised him, and the result is the most extreme thing he produced: the violence unembarrassed, the prose at its most incantatory.
