Book - Murder Never Knocks
Titan Books announce the return of one of the best literary detectives with a new Mike Hammer book from Mickey Spillane and Max Allan Collins...
Mike Hammer is a popular guy. At least with certain people. Several failed assassination attempts have got him riled, so apart from preventing the kidnapping of a famous New York socialite, he’s hellbent on figuring out who wants him dead... Someone who’s desperate for the kill of his life.
Restored from Mickey Spillane’s original notes and co-authored by his literary executor Max Allan Collins, the two writers come together to create a cunning noir thriller that perfectly melds sharp prose with brutal action. Set against a vintage 1960s backdrop Murder Never Knocks retains all the punch that made the original series so iconic.

Max Allan Collins is the author of Road to Perdition, the acclaimed graphic novel that inspired the movie, and of the multiple-award-winning Nathan Heller series of historical hardboiled mysteries.
