Dead Weight by Frank Smith
Armchair fiction presents extra large paperback editions of the best in classic Mystery-Crime novels. This hard-nosed tale, Dead Weight, was penned by well-known mystery-crime writer, Frank Kane. Get in my way and I'll stamp you flat That's what the boss of Chinese Heaven told Johnny Liddell. You'll tell me what I want to know-sooner or later. The gunman swept the flat of the barrel across Johnny's cheek. You asked for it, peeper. We'll see how tough you are. A switch knife flashed in the goon's hand. Everyone was threatening Johnny Liddell, even his girl and the cops, until Johnny came up with a new kind of twist to trap a killer. It was so good that he fooled everyone-even himself Carried out in the heart of Chinatown, this gritty mystery has it all: Torture, murder, conspiracy. A must read for all Yellow Peril fans and a definite hit-in more ways than one-for any whodunit enthusiast
Smith, Frank: - Frank Smith was born in Canada and went to England at the age of six. At the age of 16 he went to work in Bletchley Park, the wartime station where enemy communications were being decoded with the aid of the famous Enigma machine. He began writing in the 1960s. The theme of the first five books, beginning with CORPSE IN HANDCUFFS, was espionage in the Cold War years, but when that came to an end he moved on to police procedurals featuring DCI Neil Paget and DS John Tregalles.
