Description:
NY: Atlantic Monthly Press, 1998. 1st ed. fine in dj. A Detective Sergeant Mulheisen title. It's springtime in Detroit and Detective Sergeant "Fang" Mulheisen has settled in for a period of repose - he thinks. But when a young kid arrives with an E-mail cartoon message addressed to Mulheisen depicting a murder and an alluring young historian suddenly wants to know all about Grootka, Mulheisen begins a scavenger hunt to uncover the notebooks Grootka left behind. It turns out that Grootka knew a lot more than he ever told Mulheisen, or anyone. Such as what happened to Jimmy Hoffa one lonely weekend in an isolated African-American resort town on the Great Lakes, and the advice Grootka gave him: "When push comes to shove, kick is better." Mulheisen soon discovers that neither the young historian nor modern jazz's rising star is what he seems.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. Book.

N.Y.: Atlantic Monthly Press, 1993. First edition, first printing, so stated. A fine copy in fine dust jacket. SIGNED by Jackson at title page. "Back on the streets in top form is Detroit's soiled, yet sensitive Sgt. "Fang" Mulheisen, whose last appearance was in the praised Grootka . Having rubbed out mobster Sid Sedlacek and his driver, hit man Hal Good is picked up as a possible witness and taken to jail while Mulheisen oversees the crime scene. A quick ID switch with a drunk in a nearby cell lands Hal back on the streets, in possession of a large chunk of money taken from Sid (who'd taken it from his boss, hence the contract), and pursued by both Mulheisen and another gun-for-hire. Meanwhile, Mulheisen meets up with a woman from his past and falls for her all over again, even though her husband has a few too many links with the latest profusion of homicides. With dialogue that's droll and dark, a series figure who's one short step from terminal burnout and a seamy…

Tucson: AZ: Dennis McMillan, 1995. 1st ed. LIMITED EDITION, 1 0f 300 copies bound in cloth SIGNED and NUMBERED by Jackson. Fine in dust jacket, in slipcase, this being #140. "The trajectory of marginal Detroit mobman Joe Service continues to leave a mess in its aftermath, the clearing up of which seems to be the eternal lot of Detroit copper Fang Mulheisen, now in his sixth appearance. In Deadman (1994), Joe was left in Montana, shot in the head. Here, still recovering from his coma, he takes off for Salt Lake City with his smitten nurse, Cathleen Yoder, who was lusted after by the female shooter in the previous novel. Joe and Cathleen become lovers, but his memory isn't as functional as his sex drive: he can't remember where his money is, and he has violent encounters with some large angry hoods from Tonga, whom he isn't sure really exist. Meanwhile Fang is falling hard for a rural woman in Montana, where he is still tracing Joe's part in previous killings. Jackson…

Greenwich: CT: Fawcett Gold Medal, 1957. 1st printing, July 1957, Gold Medal #s688. [.35 cover price] Vintage Paperback. Cover by Richard Powers. Although there are others that try to cast doubt on Theo's Durrant's conviction, this is the only one that explains exactly why the jury found him guilty. Based on the lead detective's notes -- the discovery of which in the wreckage of the San Francisco earthquake must have bordered on the miraculous -- and the many, many, many interviews everyone involved in the case (including Durrant himself) gave to the press -- this is deeply researched and wonderfully told. This was Jackson's last book as he died before he could finish and his good friend took over where he left off. All Vintage Paperbacks come sealed in 2.5 mil plastic bag and taped closed with removable tape which will not tear the covers if it sticks to them when the book is removed.. 1st Edition. Pictorial Wrappers. Very Good. Illus. by Powers, Richard. Vintage Paperback.

Detective Sergeant "Fang" Mulheisen, introduced in The Diehard , here investigates three linked murders in a Detroit precinct where men are men and women are helpless "babes," rated according to physical attributes. Grootka, a tough, retired cop and Mulheisen's former mentor, finds the body of pimp Books Meldrim in a car trunk. Twenty years earlier, Books informed on a man who allegedly raped and killed a girl; Grootka interrogated the suspect, who then escaped. Now Grootka insists that the misogynistic criminal has returned for revenge, finding evidence in the recent violent death of an old woman. Mulheisen follows as the streetwise Grootka unravels the clues. . 1st Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. Book.

Fang Mulheisen, Detroit police detective extraodinaire, is back - this time on a mission to the high dusty plains of Montana, where Helen Sedlacek seems to have surfaced. Readers of Jackson's previous work will remember that Helen, daughter of the late, hardly lamented Mafia don Big Sid Sedlacek, exacted vengeance for her father's murder by chopping down the leader of the Detroit mob with a double-barreled 12-gauge, then disappeared with a truck full of stolen cash. Now, months later, a man fitting the description of Joe Service -- Helen's lover and Mulheisen's longtime underworld nemesis -- arrives in a Butte hospital in a coma, having been shot in the face at close range. Then Mario Soper, a mob hit man with an open contract to kill Joe, turns up dead in a…

When her husband sets off to "find himself" in Europe, Kate is pregnant and jobless, and their daughter is only five. Then her next-door neighbor is murdered. Kate doubts that the killer was an intruder-nothing of value was stolen, and it wasn't like the orderly Pepper Livingston to have left a window open. Along with her acerbic best friend, Kate begins to look at her neighbors in a new light, especially Pepper's cool husband, Robert. Searching through Pepper's things at the request of nearly divorced homicide Lt. Michael Stone, Kate finds a matchbook in an old purse of Pepper's and a hidden diaphragm; she is also shown an earring the police have found in the hallway. Later, after she and Michael have become more intimate, she uses these clues to come up with the culprit and motive. . First Edition. Hard Cover.…
