Abstract

"After preventing the violent robbery of two college sweethearts who stumbled onto a priceless archaeological find, P.I. Mike Hammer takes on Islamic terrorists and Israeli extremists out to seize the relic for their own purposes ... In the midst of a Manhattan snowstorm, Hammer halts the violent robbery of a pair of college sweethearts who have stumbled onto a remarkable archaeological find in the Valley of Elah: the perfectly preserved femur of what may have been the biblical giant Goliath. Hammer postpones his marriage to his faithful girl Friday, Velda, to fight a foe deadlier than the mobsters and KGB agents of his past -- Islamic terrorists and Israeli extremists bent upon recovering the relic for their own agendas. A week before his death, Mickey Spillane entrusted his nearly finished manuscript and extensive notes to his frequent collaborator, Max Allan Collins, to complete.The result is a thriller as classic as Spillane's own I, the Jury and as compelling as Collins's Road to Perdition."--Publisher's description.
