They're back in the fifth adventure in the beloved and acclaimed series that influenced generations of crime writers.Retired pro football star Ed Cross did most of his scoring between bed posts with other player's women, including Hump's ex-girlfriend. That was bad enough. But, just to rub it in, Cross sends Hump an x-rated birthday skin flick of him celebrating in bed with two women. Hump goes looking for blood... and finds it. Cross is murdered and Hump becomes the prime suspect. Hardman works to clear Hump and discovers there's plenty of murderous hate for Cross out there...from the top of the sports world to the pits of Atlanta's illegal gambling scene... and revealing it could get them both killed. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis new edition includes an Afterword from Ben Jones, the Dukes of Hazzard actor and former U.S. Congressman from Georgia. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePRAISE FOR THE HARDMAN NOVELS \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Like Chandler and Hammett before him, Dennis was trying to do something different with what was thought of as throwaway literature.\" Joe R.
