The Goliath Bone

From the New York Times bestselling author Max Allan Collins and the iconic master of noir Mickey Spillane comes the first book in the Mike Hammer series.

In the midst of a Manhattan snowstorm, Hammer halts the violent robbery of a pair of college sweethearts who have stumbled onto a remarkable archaeological find in the Valley of Elah: the perfectly preserved femur of what may have been the biblical giant Goliath. Hammer postpones his marriage to his faithful girlfriend, Velda, to fight a foe deadlier than the mobsters and KGB agents of his past-Islamic terrorists and Israeli extremists bent upon recovering the relic for their own agendas.
