Recommended reading - My Kind of Game


My Kind of Game

by Marvin Albert.

Published by Fawcett.
First published 1962.
Mass Market Paperback.

ISBN-10: 0449133885
ISBN-13: 978-0449133880
 
Description:
WANTED – Anyone with information about Louis Kovac may find it worth-while to get in touch with Anthony Rome at the Seaview Motel. Kovac met with an accident. 

His assignment will be completed by Rome.

The ad was Rome’s last hope, a stab-in-the-dark that someone might spill who had it in for Lou Kovac, and why.

Rome didn’t expect an immediate answer. He wasn’t ready to get it in his motel room, in person, from a beautiful girl, pointing a very loaded .32.

A new, trigger-sharp case in the fast, bullet-scarred career of detective Anthony Rome.

My Kind of Game.
