<DIV><b>Two short novels from a master of hard-boiled storytelling</b></div><BR><DIV>Simon Crane is an ex-cop with a bad leg, a small pension, and a former lover, Joanne, who works for Sal Aiello, undisputed crime boss of a dusty southwestern city. When Aiello and his millions disappear, the city&rsquo;s underworld whips into a frenzy that could get Joanne killed. To save her life, Crane must find the dead mobster&rsquo;s cash before anyone else does. Somebody put a hit out on Aiello, and if Crane can&rsquo;t find out who, he will be taking the bullet himself.</div><DIV>&#160;</div><DIV>In this special edition ebook, <i>The Hit</i> is paired with <i>The Marksman</i>, a tense novella about a combat veteran caught up in criminal dealings far more violent than anything he saw in the Middle East. Garfield&rsquo;s prose is spare and his storytelling is electric from page one. Both novellas overflow with grim, relentless action.</div>
