HARD CASE CRIME
01 August 2025
Notorious hitman Quarry, star of the Cinemax series, comes out of retirement for one last assignment when a media mogul hires him to assassinate a beautiful young...librarian? Twists and sexy surprises abound as Quarry delivers justice in his violent but principled fashion.

QUARRY'S BACK

FOR HIS TOUGHEST JOB EVER.

The ruthless professional killer known as Quarry long ago disappeared into a well-earned retirement. But now a media magnate has lured the restless hitman into tackling one last lucrative assignment. The target is an unlikely one: Why, Quarry wonders, would anyone want a beautiful young librarian dead?

And why in hell does he care?

On the 30th anniversary of the enigmatic assassin's first appearance, bestselling author Max Allan Collins brings him back for a dark and deadly mission where the last quarry may turn out to be Quarry himself.
