NOW A CINEMAX TELEVISION SERIES!
The longest-running series from Max Allan Collins, author of Road to Perdition, and the first ever to feature a hitman as the main character, the Quarry novels tell the story of a paid assassin with a rebellious streak and an unlikely taste for justice. Once a Marine sniper, Quarry found a new home stateside with a group of contract killers. But some men aren't made for taking orders - and when Quarry strikes off on his own, god help the man on the other side of his nine-millimeter...
Honestly could be anybody. There's no way of knowing.
I’ve been on a Max Allan Collins kick, so I figured I’d explore his series about hit man Quarry. I like this first one, so I’m sure I’ll check out more. The Hard Case Crime cover is raunchy enough that I had to keep hiding it at the playground with my kid, so here’s an alternate. https://t.co/fq7Kj1LWbs
